Factory winch with Warn Wireless control
#2
#3
Well, one would think so.
Problem is that the Land Rover winch already has 6 wires running to the socket for the controller. the instructions for the wireless controller say to add a ground wire in an open slot between two of the wires. Without a good picture showing where the slot is it is difficult for me to confirm which slot connects to ground. I reached out to Warn (since it is a 9.5 XP) but have not heard back, but then it was a holiday weekend.
Once plugged in I cannot even get the red light to come on, so there is a power connection issue to be sorted out. The control box is bolted to the inside of the factory steel bumper, and I would need to pull the bumper to get to it. I am trying to avoid that if possible.
If had a good picture from the back side of the controller socket showing the wires AND THE SLOT, I may be able to figure out what my problem is. that and good wiring diagram showing where the 6 wires go.
I figure I will get it sorted out........... or not.
The only reason I am trying this as the wire for the controller I have is showing some wear and will need replacing sometime after I retire, so I figured I would buy one now before I retire.
Thank for the reply.
