Volvo Penta Power trim going out?

I have a 1998 Regal Commodore 242 with a penta volvo 5.0 GL PBYC and SX-M drive.

The trim started to quit a week ago. It turns up and down with no problem but only for a few seconds and then stops. I have to wait a minute or two afterwards to get it going again for other few seconds.

I made sure there is enough oil. I also connected a straight cable (POS & NEG) to the motor itself and I did not leave the cable connected too long because the cables were getting to hot.

Is the motor going bad?

Anything to troubleshoot here?
