Try to jumper power to the lift/lower hydraulic lock solenoid. If it still does not allow lift or lower then it's bad. I have had them go bad on several trucks.

Fact of the week
In March 2002, identical twins in Finland died on the same day in similar accidents within hours of each other. A 70-year-old man was killed by a truck while cycling; hours later, his twin brother was killed by a truck on the same road, about a mile away, before the family had been informed of the first accident.
