Default Bravo I pump question

Put the boat away last weekend everything worked fine. Put the drives up to trailer home. Took it out yesterday and the stbd drive will not go down. Pump just clicks when you hit the button. Tried tapping it while holding the button down, everything is tight, nothing worked. So I switched hydraulic lines over to the trim tab pump, just so my day wasn't wasted! So is the motor shot? Are these rebuildable?

Thanks,
Nick

You sure you are hearing the pump?

Need to jump the terminals on the solenoid first, that will tell you if IT is opening properly.

Start at the cheapest part first.

Yeah the motor for the hydraulic. Inside it I can hear a click when I push the button. Yeah I need to jump it to do some tests. I just haven't yet and was on the water already when this happened.

Thanks guys. Got it fixed last night. Jumped the solenoid and I had no power. So started to trace the power wire and found a small four pin plug that had come unplugged. Plugged it in and it took right off. No idea how or when it came off. I'd say it was our lovely Michigan roads that bounced it loose. Pretty bad when the Great Lakes are smoother than the roads But hey at least it was a free fix!
