I HAVE FIXED IT !! Many thanks for all the effort above it is most appreciated. After testing for live wires and confirming the live wires I was sure that it should be working so I took a risk on a new actuator
It was the Actuator. The returning action from manual selecting confused me but that must be due to the spring and whatever tells it to release working seperate from the motor (which must be gone).
The bad timing to go when I'm doing the hive install is just frustrating.... I'm sure I tested it too before I started but must not have waited for the radiators to heat up (green light vs actual heating)
So again many thanks for everything and confirming the wiring (I had it right in the first place lol)
Its certainly been a very educational experience
