western Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 change it for a Albright solenoid pack. here far better/waterproof & much more reliable oh & a lot cheaper even with postage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yogibear47.lee Posted June 27, 2009 Author Share Posted June 27, 2009 thanks western found the links but for me it means nothing, know nothing with this kind of stuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tuko Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 thanks western found the links but for me it means nothing, know nothing with this kind of stuff I recently bought one of these albrights for my winch. If you follow the links that are here and read the wiring instructions, you'll see that it is very easy to install and it will make life easier for yourself and the winch. ..........some suppliers will send a wiring diagram with the albright, just ask when ordering.

western Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 Yes, same item. the winch motor terminals should be identified as A F1 F2 connect these to the terminals on the Albright so they match up. the albright terminal marked + on the diagram is the main feed from the battery the winch motor earth can be routed directly back to the battery - ve [earth] terminal 1,2 & 3 spade terminals are the hand remote control connections, 1 of these is the power feed, the other 2 are the winch in & out connections, just swap the around until the winch runs in the same directions as the in/out on the hand remote controller. hth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yogibear47.lee Posted June 27, 2009 Author Share Posted June 27, 2009 i only have 2 wires from the winch it self so do they go to f1 f2, then a live from battery to +, then i no the rest what confusing me is the A, f1 and f2 since ive only got 2 wires from the winch it sef Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 Wonder how the field windings in the motor get energised with only 2 connections ? try it & see if the winch runs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
