Title: winch internal control
Post by: davidlandy on March 18, 2006, 13:43:16

Got bored today so finally got around to wiring up myself an incab winch control - I am rather pleased with it ...and it works too!

when I can find a 20mm drill so i can fit the arm/disarm switch I shall take a piccy or two.

Looking good Dave.  =D>

Did mine a few months ago, I think I've posted this before but here it is again.  :D

The bottom left electric window switch is the in/out & I think you can guess which on is for the power!  :wink:

thats a tidy job Budgie - nice one

Its a great mod, just wish that i had done it sooner!

do you still have use of the standard remote on yours if you wish, or rewired it the internal one only?

No, it still works with the remote for spooling the rope on & off for cleaning etc.
I just put the wires for the internal controls onto the same terminals as the remote.

That was the easy bit, the hard part was finding the right terminals on the electric window switch!!  :wink:
