WIRING
POWER SET-UP
There are two types of wiring required to complete the winch
installation: power and control. All wiring connects to the solenoid.
Additional wiring will be required if an isolator switch (not included)
is installed.
The solenoid connects the winch to the 12V battery and controls
when the winch receives power. Mount the solenoid as close to the
winch location as possible.
Make sure there is access to the engine compartment for the wiring
from the winch to the battery and solenoid. Ensure the wiring will not
be exposed to road debris and hot or moving engine parts.
You may need to modify the vehicle to create an access point. Install
a rubber grommet or similar device to protect the wires.
WARNING! Do not touch the solenoid terminals or allow a tool to
tough them when connected to the battery as this may cause a
short-circuit, resulting in electrocution.
1.
Mount the solenoid near the winch. Check that the blue (#37)
and yellow (#36) wires will reach from the solenoid to the winch
through the vehicle’s structure.
1.1 The solenoid should have sufficient clearance to avoid
touching metal structure when installed.
2. Mark the holes for mounting and drill pilot holes, making
sure there are no wires or components that may be damaged
in behind the attachment point. Attach with two screws (not
included).
3. The solenoid terminals are colour-coded, as
are the wires leading to the winch and 12V
battery.
3.1 Slide the wire boots (#19) over the wires
(#4 to 7).
3.2 The yellow wire (#5) connects the yellow
solenoid terminal to the winch’s yellow
post (-) (Fig. 3-1).
