Default Help with power trim

Starboard power trim only clicks when I push on the up or down buttons, when I jump across the solenoid posts nothing, no click no nothing either post up or down I have checked battery 12.4 volts checked at the post and at the grounding point 12.4 volts. The port power trim works with button and jumping across. They both worked at the end of last season been working on updating the exhaust got it done was checking everything else now this. ANY HELP PLEASE

apply direct power to both directions, normal for 1 solenoid to go out, both, pump motor, direct power will tell if motor or not, might try cleaning brushes.

Default changing to new style pump

Thanks guys, pulled end plate off the motor to check brushes and found a broken wire. Changed over to the new style pumps. Now trying to figure out how to flush out the system. Old pumps used 20w oil. Was hoping to pump new fluid through the system and push the oil out the return line, that didn't happen. How do you do this??
