Need some help. Have now installed most of electrofrog peco points to tortoise switch motors. Have 2 with frogs that appear to be dead, all others are fine. The 2 points in question are brand new peco points suitably prepped for operation but frogs are dead. Motors wired correctly and installed under baseboard. Any thoughts?

Yes the points have the tiny wire joints removed and the main rails soldered to the inners as per peco instructions. Tortoise motors wired as follows - 1 and 8 to point switch decoder,
4 to frog and 2 and 3 to rail feeds. All in accordance with instruction sheets etc. When I check the connections with volt meter. All good but frog is dead . I've run a test wire from the end of the point to the frog rails and got power. Wondering if the frog soldering underneath is not quite perfect.
