see if the motors for the pop up assembly is getting power. if it is but it’s not turning then the motor is shot, if it isn’t getting power then it’s probably a relay or switch or wiring.

Yep, you will need a volt meter to do it. Turn the switch on and put the volt meter on the connector leads that go to the motor and see if it reads 12V. If it doesn’t there is a relay or wire problem. If it does get 12V then the motor has gone bye bye.

thanks for the help  
hopefully ist just the motor  
tried relays already. no dice.  
and i am hoping its not other wiring. i heard though that since both lights went at the same time it wouldn t likely be the motors.
