Most often when a powered trailer tongue jack will not operate the issue is with the wiring: a weak battery, loose cables, etc. But if your jack does not operate manually either, using the hand crank function, then this tells us there is likely to be corrosion/wear/damage in the actual mechanism.

If the jack is quite old I suggest replacing it. If you prefer we do offer re-build kits for many of the brands we carry.

I have linked you to our main page for all tongue jacks; you can click on the filters to select electric jacks and any other features you want. I also linked repair kits.

If you select a new jack I recommend using one rated higher than your actual requirement as this helps extend the jack's working lifespan.
