I'm having trouble with my Warn VR8000. About a year ago, I was using my winch and it just quit on me. Since I should be having more free time coming up, I decided I would try to get it fixed. When I engage the winch, nothing happens, no clicking or anything. The solenoids all read about the same, 14.6 ohms. Before I try to jump start the winch, I cleaned off the terminals. Water does seem to be getting into the box where the solenoids, so I'm hopping it may just be that, got a cover for the winch today. Anything else to check, before I disassembly it and check the motor?
Thanks
UPDATE: I recleaned the solenoids again and got it working!!!!
