Could use some help with diagnostics:
My power trim was working normally yesterday with the following exception: my upper trim limit is not connected, i use the top 2 buttons for up and the bottom button for in. Today, while raising the drive, the pitch and speedthe of the hydraulics seemed like my battery was dying. Hooked up the muffs and fired her up. This resulted in no change. After several attempts, the drive will not raise or lower. I get a solenoid click when attempting to raise and nothing when lowering. I removed the 3 prong connector and jumped between the red/green and red/blue with the same results. Electrically disconnected the hydraulic motor, applied a jumper directly from the black motor lead to negative terminal and jumped from positive terminal to blue and green motor leads respectively. This gave me no motor actuation at all. To me this indicates motor failure. Are there any other steps i can take to verify failure?
