Winch only runs one way
Winch only runs one way
Winch was only running one way and wouldn't wind in the cable. Only powers outwards, so I've whipped the motor off and hooked it up to the solenoid block on the bench to make sure it wasn't the gearbox binding or anything stupid. Is it more likely to be the motor or solenoid
Re: Winch only runs one way
usually a dead solenoid swap them over to check it
Re: Winch only runs one way
Do I just swap f1 and f2?

Re: Winch only runs one way
Yes if you swap f1 and f2 on the motor it should reverse its direction in relation to the way the switch is operated. If you have a bung solenoid it will reverse the direction in which it does not operate.

Might also pay to check the contacts where you plug the remote in. Had this happen to me once.

Yea wasnt the solenoid turns out it was the motor
