Landing gear retracts but won't extend

[Gaffer]

2010 Bighorn with electric front jacks. My landing gear will retract but not extend. Is this most likely a bad switch? Works both directions fine with the manual crank.

That would be my first guess on the faulty switch. Its apparent that you have power to the switch. Make a jumper to double check to see if its the switch but my moneys on it.

Spray some 'electric contact cleaner' on the swtich from the outside...worked when our landing gear failed one way.

Pop the switch out and check the connections to make sure they are pushed on tight and making a good connection. I am presuming that when you hit the switch that the motor and connecting rod between the motor and the opposite side are not turning. There are also wiring connections coming from the switch up to the motor that may be loose.
