If you have a 12 volt light-wire tester you might have to trace back. I would start with the motor itself since you only have the heavy gauge wires leading to it. From what you wrote, I would assume that the fuse on the positive lead to the motor is fine, but pull it out and use the tester there to see if you have juice getting up to the fuse. Then trace the positive wire back to the motor. Turn the key on and test there.

Funny you mention your problems...mine was the same exact way! I found 3 fuses that had blown and for the life of me, I cannot figure out why that happened. The first one that blew was the fuse for the trim and tilt. Second one was my 5 amp fuse for the stereo, and then finally the 20 amp fuse on the main positive to the motor. I was miffed!!
