I have a 94 YJ that i use for plowing my driveway which is a serious uphill battle. My plow is 7'x24'' worked with a 1500 lb quad winch. I also have a 10,000 lb winch that i occasionally use. I have V-groove chains on all 4 tires, and rear differential is locked. I just wanted to share the fact that when a winch only clics at the solenoid, it can almost always be a power problem. Usually contacts. Redid all the contacts on the 10,000 winch when it failed while pulling stumps. This week, the plow did the same, and the contact at the battery needed tightening.
I just hope this just might save someone a bunch of time like i did to solve this. Both my problems were at the ground connection. I now i will also clean the Anderson connector tabs every fall .
