Honda tilt trim switch

Ok , after the trip out the other day i noticed that my tilt trim guage wasn't working on my console , but the motor still trims as I mainly go by the engine revs not the guage . I lifted up the motor and under the mount on the right hand side is the trim guage switch but when i move the paddle forward and look at the guage nothing happens and you have to push the paddle all the way forward till it will release back , any guru's out there or am I looking at the wrong switch , its a bf50 four stroke
