The "up" switch hasn't worked in years, so I've been using the trailer switch. It has worked fine up until today. Now, I press the center and top button and I can hear the solenoid click, but the drive doesn't move at all.
When I press the bottom button, I can year the pump run and the drive moves.
If I run a jumper wire from the positive terminal on the starter to the lug on the solenoid with the blue wire attached, the pump runs and the drive goes up.
Does this sound like a bad solenoid? What else could it be?
