Go to PepBoys. Don't be distracted by the off-road go carts and think "I can build that better" as this will keep you from your quest. Go down the bling-ricer lighting isle, you know the isle with the LED under car kits that you are trying to justify as "just trail lights" but you also want the one with the multiple patterns that chase and blink and shit.
Well stop for a moment
And look for this product:
It is a 4 channel wireless remote. The neat thing about it is
1) its fawking cheap ($29)
2) the channels are changeable to be either on/off or momentary
Follow the directions to change 2 of the channels to momentary. I chose "3" and "4" because they are at the bottom of the controller and are easily marked.
each channel has 2 color coded wires that come out. This is retardedly simple to hook up as all it does is complete a circuit. so just wire it like you would a switch.
The controller has a built in 15a fuse and each circuit is a 15a relay. If your winch needs more just run the controller to trip a relay. I dont think you will but who knows.
There is a positive and a ground wire, its only job is to open and close whatever circuit (channel)
now open your winch and find the following wires/connections:
power
in
out
real difficult so far, huh?
run ONE of each channel wires to your power and also the red to the power, the black to a ground. run the other channel wire to the corresponding in/out wire/connection.
ummm...thats it. :laughing:
The remote is all pimp and shit
it has a on/off and an extending antenna. I used the dremel to mark the right buttons.
WARNING !!! the controller box is NOT sealed. unless you are placing the box inside you "might" want to do something about keeping it dry.
The whole thing measures 3x5x.5 at the most.
Oh and you also have 2 more channels to control your disco LED rock lights :flipoff2: (or rear winch) I was operating the winch from 200+ feet away. Mind you there is a slight delay in start/stop so PRACTICE with the thing before hitting the trails.
Thought your all could enjoy a cheaper winch remote.
