ok, my lights come on now.... but the motors do not kick in to flip them
up. I know the motors are good... I have replaced all 3 relays, is the
switch my next step?
thanks

I'd guess it's the wiring, which tends to get brittle, soak in some
water, and then break.  Check the signal at the actuator connector
and see if you're getting voltage there when you turn the lights on
and off.  Happened to me ...
