Trim up, not down

I was at the lake the other day, had motor trimmed all the way up while we were beached. Then out of the blue, my 1988 85hsp Force decided it did not want to trim down. Luckily the engine falls slowly on its own so I was able to sit there for 5 mins while the prop submerged into the water. Funy thing is, the engine still trims up, just not down. I'm thinking maybe one of the relay's has gone bad? It makes a clicking noise when I try to trim down, but no movement, doesn't sound like any fluid is moving either.
