Flow 3 Tab Not Retracting
Good day All,
When I took my Kaiyen out at the end of last year, I noticed that the port side Flow 3 tab was not retracting. I did every I could think of to reset the tab:
- reset/retract all tabs from dash
- cyclled surf left/right
- turned the battery switch off then on
- repeated all of the above x 2
After all of my attempts... it's still in the down position.
Over the winter I read somewhere that the breaker for the tabs is in the engine compartment and that could just need a reset? Any help would be appreciated.

If similar to supras, the breaker is the same as your ballast breaker, which is in the engine compartment.
Are your ballast pumps working? If not, then it’s likely the breaker. It’s located on the front panel right next to the ski pole in my Supra and it’s labeled “ballast”.
Mine kept tripping and went bad and I replaced it this season for ~$30 and it’s working great.
If your pumps are working and that switch is not tripped then I’m not entirely sure of the problem but others might be.

Another possibility is a software issue.
My port tab got stuck down on my 21SA, tried resetting breakers etc without luck, took it to dealer and they reflashed software and no issues since.

I agree with @larry_arizona, don't rule out a software issue.

Its possible an actuator could be bad, but I would try the other teoubleshooting first. And make sure that the ballast and actuators are or are'nt on the same breaker. I am honestly not sure. I found a couple of pictures I happen to have of the breakers directly behind my back seat on a 2021 Makai. Two of them are labeled as Ballast. I don't see anything labeled as Tabs. But maybe somewhere else if they're not on the same circuit. ...... You know now that I think about it (after having said all that), if your other tabs are moving fine, then it's software or a bad actuator ( could be a loose connector for that one too). I doubt each tab actuator has its own breaker.
