onBlockActivate() and onItemRightClick() not working together

So I have a block with an TileEntity and an Item with the method onItemRightClick().

The onBlockActivate() method runs before the onItemRightClick() and then never runs the onItemRightClick().

This is how the code looks:

@Override
    public ActionResult<ItemStack> onItemRightClick(ItemStack itemStackIn, World worldIn, EntityPlayer playerIn, EnumHand hand) {

        RayTraceResult raytraceresult = this.rayTrace(worldIn, playerIn, false);
        if (raytraceresult == null) {
            return super.onItemRightClick(itemStackIn, worldIn, playerIn, hand);
        } else if (raytraceresult.typeOfHit != RayTraceResult.Type.BLOCK) {
            return super.onItemRightClick(itemStackIn, worldIn, playerIn, hand);
        } else {
            BlockPos blockpos = raytraceresult.getBlockPos();
            TileEntity tileEntity = worldIn.getTileEntity(blockpos);
            System.out.println(blockpos.getX());
            System.out.println(blockpos.getY());
            System.out.println(blockpos.getZ());
            if(tileEntity instanceof TileEntitySunTotem){
                System.out.println("Hey");
                TileEntitySunTotem tileEntitySunTotem = (TileEntitySunTotem) tileEntity;

            }
        }


        return super.onItemRightClick(itemStackIn, worldIn, playerIn, hand);
    }

    public boolean onBlockActivated(World worldIn, BlockPos pos, IBlockState state, EntityPlayer playerIn, EnumHand hand, @Nullable ItemStack heldItem, EnumFacing side, float hitX, float hitY, float hitZ){
        if(!worldIn.isRemote){
            TileEntity tileEntity = worldIn.getTileEntity(pos);
            if(tileEntity instanceof TileEntitySunTotem){
                TileEntitySunTotem tileEntitySunTotem = (TileEntitySunTotem) tileEntity;
                playerIn.addChatMessage(new TextComponentString("" + tileEntitySunTotem.getSolarEnergy()));
            }
        }

        return true;
    }

It does work when I shift + right click with the item. But I want it to work without.
