Wiring the Winch (Wireless Use) Cont’d.
This kit is designed for use on front mounted
self-recovery winches only. The remote is
not designed for and should not be used on
winches or hoists in industrial applications
(car haulers/carriers, wrecker, cranes, etc.) or
for any other remote controlled applications.
WARNING
Test Winch Operation
When testing the winch for correct connections
and operation (Non-wireless and Wireless).
1. Make sure there are no exposed terminals or
wiring.
2. Wiring to all components is correct.
3. All loose wires are secured.
4. Turn the vehicle ignition switch to the ON
position, but DO NOT start the vehicle.
5. Check the winch for proper operation using
the rocker switch (or remote). The wire rope
should spool in and out in the direction
indicated on the switch (or remote).
LED Indicator Light
– Steady Red: System active and ready to use.
– Flashing Red: Winch powering in or out.
NOTE
6. Locate the black and green wires running
from the solenoid/contactor to the rocker
switch. Find the bullet connectors on these
wires located near the solenoid/contactor.
7. Plan a route for the wire harness between the
antenna and these bullet connectors.
8. Pull apart the bullet connectors on the black
and green wires identified in step 6 above.
9. Connect the rocker switch and solenoid/
contactor to the antenna (black to black and
green to green).
10. Connect the black ground wire with the ring
to the black, negative (-) terminal on the
solenoid/contactor.
11. Splice the end of the red wire on the rocker
switch, to an ignition (keyed) controlled power
source using the supplied wire tap.
12. Splice the end of the red wire on the antenna,
to an ignition (keyed) controlled power source
using the supplied wire tap
13. Once all wiring is connected to the solenoid/
contactor, it can then be mounted using the
supplied M6 hardware.
14. Tighten the solenoid/contactor terminal nuts.
DO NOT over tighten.
15. Connect the black lead to the negative (-)
terminal of the vehicle’s 12 volt battery.
16. Place all terminal boots over terminals and
secure all cables with cable ties or electrical
tape (not included).
17. Activate the wireless system by pressing and
holding the POWER button on the wireless
remote for 3 seconds. This enables the
wireless control system. A red indicator light
on the wireless remote turns on when the
system is active and ready to use.
18. Check for proper drum rotation. Pull and
turn the clutch knob to the “OUT” position
(free spooling). Pull out some cable from the
drum, and then turn the clutch knob to the
“IN” position to engage the gears. Press the
cable out button on the remote. If the drum
is turning and releasing more cable then
your connections are accurate. If the drum
is turning and collecting more cable then
reverse the leads on the motor. Repeat and
check rotation.
19. Deactivate the system by pressing the POWER
button on the wireless remote and holding for
3 seconds, until red light turns off or after
2 mins of idle time, the wireless system de-
activates.
