"Time for some real troubleshooting. Don't throw a dime at this equipment until you know what is wrong. If it still has a warranty, use it.
I did some searching with the model number. Among the ads were posts from people who had trouble with water getting inside the electric motor and causing corrosion. Superwinch.com did not seem to have any comprehensive repair manuals for this model."
Thanks, Mike. If I were just up for some serious troubleshooting, knowledgewise. I guess I could take the winch out of the bumper, open it up and look at the innards. That might tell me something. But I still need to know how to test a solenoid to see if it's bad.
No warranty. It came with the bumper, which I bought (new) for serious discount from a guy in Texas who got tired of waiting for the bumper and winch to arrive. He went with a different bumper and winch and sold the other ones to me.
Roo, the battery's fine.
