Larry, I finally got some time to troubleshoot today.  You're right about the high pressure switch.  I wired it out of the circuit with a manual substitute which controlled gear retraction just fine.  That pressure switch is about 2 years old with only 10 flight hours on it.  No idea how many gear swings on the ground were done.
 
Thanks,

I'm hearing broken wire on the up side pressure switch circuit.  It is a normally closed switch.  When the pressure is attained the switch opens to turn off the pump.  Perhaps the connections have failed or the switch has internally failed. 
 
Good Luck,
 
Larry
