I recently got an old Warn M8000 from a freind for next to nothing. before i take the time to mount it i want to test it out so i hooked it up to a fully charged battery and it wont do anything. Should a battery alone have the amps needed to power the cable out without a load or will it need to be hooked up to a running vehicle to take advantage of the alternator output? I checked the remote by continuity testing the pins. it is a three pin unit and I had continuity on both the in and out switch positions. I still need to open up the solenoid box to look for shorts but i do have power when i check between the battery negative terminal and the positive connnection on the winch motor. Does anyone have any suggestions?
