Hoping it is low on hydraulic fluid, check that first, if the motor runs.
Don't know a lot about them, but it sounds like the solenoid is working, that's the clicking sound, but the trim motor is not responding, not a good thing. For your sake I hope I'm wrong, but it sounds like a new PT motor is in your future.

My trim was doing the same battery was low and needed charging. Good luck

Check the fluid first. If thats good try swapping the relays. Just because the are clicking does not mean they are good.

The clicking sound is the solenoid closing. It should click once only when you push and hold the trim button. If it's clicking continually, it's either a low battery, dirty connections or a bad solenoid. JMHO
