Why does my winch just click?
If it is just a rapid clicking, it’s tiring to pull in but doesn’t have enough power to hold it in. If it “clicks” , holds in and your motor doesn’t run, I would check the ground system from the winch to the battery/frame ground. May as well check both the positive and negative side.
How do I know if my winch solenoid is bad?
Conduct another voltmeter test on the large studs with the winch turned on. There should be no OHM reading. Measure the OHM reading of the two small studs with the voltmeter when the winch is on. If there is no reading on the voltmeter, then the solenoid isn’t working properly.
How do I know if my winch contactor is bad?
To determine if you have a bad contactor first check to see if the battery has sufficient voltage to power the winch and that there is a power wire hooked to the battery. 2. Look for any faulty wiring issues. (i.e. exposed wires that might be contacting the frame or disconnected wires).
Why does my winch go in but not out?
If it works then you know its not the winch motor and it has to be a bad connection.

The control box where the winch, battery and switch all connect too is bad it could cause the issue also.
How do you test a winch switch?
The easiest way to test the switch would be to run power directly to the winch, bypassing the switch. If it powers on just fine then there is an issue with the switch or its wiring. You can also check for continuity by removing the switch wires (red is power, black is ground).
