THe AD says that it trims the stabilizer.

From the descriptions, it's acting in a similar way.

It moves it at 0.27 degrees per second. I have no idea how that compares to the other things that move the stabilizer.

Boeing says you should move the switched to "cutout", but then goes on to say that you might still have to hold the trim wheel to get it to stop.
