I am hooked up to power but the gear won't move without the battery turned on. Is this normal?
YES. Normal.
Motor might run off your 120 VAC ==> 12 VDC converter, but won't carry a load without the battery.
Glad you got it working. Hope you didn't change parts you didn't need.
Many with Landing Gear or Tongue Jack, have the Trailer Connector plugged in and the truck running. But in ANY event, you need the Trailer Battery charged up and connected.
