I have a trim and tilt that has been sitting in a shed for 6 months for my 86 johnson 50hp. I was in the process of installing it on my motor but needed to lower the shaft prior to installing it. It worked last time it was installed, but when I hook it up to a 12v battery and cross the red and green or red and blue wires I get no response from the trim and tilt. I am an Elec. Eng. student so I have taken it apart and checked continuity in the wiring and connections, the electrons are flowing.

It worked before put in storage, any ideas?
