I have Bennet hydraulic trim tabs with the Bennet control switch that includes position indicator lights. Switch will allow positioning tabs down (bow down) but appears dead in raising tabs (bow up). Auto retract works fine when turning key off. Fuse and electrical connections checked at switch and appear to look fine at pump. Any suggestions?

Have you tried unplugging and plugging in the multi pin connector cable a few times. maybe a little oxidation there.

That was my thought too. I did at the switch and will try that at the pump today.

Spoke with Bennet tech support today. He suggested I look at the Relay. I did unplug the main harness there and reconnected it a few times. Also topped off the hydraulic fluid. I wasn't able to do much other trouble shooting, but I suspect it's going to be in the relay after speaking with Bennet.
