Default power hood motor not working

I really need some help on this mater as i am running out of ideas.

I have changed the pump and wiring loom. Checked all the wires and all look in good condition. The green relay near the driver is clicking when you press the hood switch, i have also tested the hood switch on the electric windows and all works.

Any other ideas?

Are you getting power to the pump?

Do you have a volt meter or power probe?

i used to have a se500 with the same prob.If u unplug the wiring from the motor,make up a short lead and connect it to battery the roof should go up or down depending and which way you got the wires.swap the wires over and the roof should go the other way.mine wasnt working due to a faulty relay in the back near the pump.
