bleeding power trim yamaha stearndrive

The trim pump on my yamaha stearndrive stopped working. I figured out that the brushes in the motor were stuck. I took them out and lubricated the housing. The motor is working now but im not sure how you bleed the pump. Does anyone have any knowledge with these stearndrives? Im having a hard time finding anything. Thanks.

Self bleeding.

Thank you for your response.

This is the first time I have worked on a power trim. So Im not sure what I need to do to self bleed. I filled with fluid left the cap off put it on manual. Lifted and raised the drive by hand 5 times. Put the cap back on and hit the switch. The pump motor was working but the drive did not move. Any help with this would be much appreciated.

Thank you for your time Capt Ken

You dropped the coupler that goes between the motor and pump. Remove the motor and check. The little oring has to be in the groove on the coupler
