Question Power trim works, then stops nothing no sound…

I replaced both solenoids and now the motor. Works a few times, sounds good (no straining sound)

then nothing, no click no solenoid click nothing.

is that 110 amp power block a circuit breaker? If so, how long should it take to reset? And if so, what would cause that to blow? (Old and defective or ??)

any suggestions? Pulling my hair out with frustration and I can’t afford to lose any more hair..

Sounds like it’s time to clean/repair (don’t forget grounds) if needed all connections and buy atleast a $10 test light to diagnose by seeing exactlywhere power is and isn’t when this happens.

Thanks SB,

found the issue, the 110 amp fuse was losing .2 volts, 12.87 on one side and 12.67 on the other. Didn’t think that was a big deal, but it is…

took it apart cleaned all connections and now no loss.

so far so good

Not sure what style connectors you have on the pump, but i would be looking at the 3-prong plug at the pump or the connections at the switch....bet you have some oxidation somewhere and making intermittent contact...
