I managed to pull the power trim pump out of my 2001 215 Express Cruiser. While originally, I thought it to be the solenoid that was the problem (sterndrive couldn't go down but pump would go and nothing on the up), after connecting a battery to the correct terminals I determined that the pump would run on both solenoids. While the connection was difficult - intermittent running, I am not so sure that it's not the solenoids - it might just be the very dirty connections. My questions is do I go ahead an clean all that up and hope that's the issue or go ahead an replace the solenoids anyway. If replacing, can anyone tell me where to get them, and which ones they are?

Thank You!
 
I changed mine out last year and like the Arco solenoids as they are USA made and the HD ones have the contacts molded into the case and not held in by the nut on the stud
