I bought a used NIB superwinch the owner had only "fiddled" with. Originally hooked up incorrectly and arced at the battery. (Long story I didn't check wiring under the cover.) Anyways trying to diagnose the problem I have 12V to the forward and reverse posts coming off the solenoids when switched. When disconnected from motor the solenoids make an audible click like their supposed to however when connected to the motor....nothing from anywhere. My theory is the motor got welded when arced OR the solenoids are fried and only noticable when put under load. I was hoping you guys had more experience with winch problems. Any help is appreciated.
