Does it make any noise at all? Can you hear the solenoid clicking?

Did you try to raise it with the three-position power rocker switch in the up, as well as down position? Some trailers have this switch wired backward.

Is the battery charged? Without a good battery it won't go up.

Along this same theme, check / clean the electrical connections on the hydraulic pump motor. Minor corrosion can definitely keep the motor from working...speaking from experience!

Please let us know how this turns out.
