Hey all,
I'm getting to the end of my rope with this Warn M15000 winch that I picked up. It was used but new in box (all the wrappers, bands, cable ties, etc still in tact). here's how it's all played out:
- hooked up to truck, initially would only spool out.
- checked connections, OK
- replaced solenoids - OK
- would only spool one way still
- jumped motor and spins in both directions
- tested remote via pinout provided by Warn - OK
- jumped solenoids, worked
- put it all back together worked (no idea why)
- today, 3 days later, nothing
- jump solenoids, NOK
- get home and test, won't run if truck is on or off
- hook up 10A charger to battery, works. most of the time
I don't understand why it will only work if a booster is hooked up to the battery?
The battery is a deep cycle AGM with 950CCA and is 1 year old. no other electrical issues with the truck.
Anyone ever encountered this problem before? Any ideas? is it the AGM? Thanks for the thoughts.
