Warn HS9500I wiring
 
Can anyone provide me with a detailed wiring diagram for a Warn HS9500i
winch. I had the winch in at a local shop for repairs...... the shop
went out of business and I got everything back in pieces!

Re: Warn HS9500I wiring
 
Thanks for the diagram.
I got it all wired up and all I get is "click" from the solenoids!
I removed the wiring and tested the motor for forward/ backward
rotation by connecting the battery and a jumper wire to A, F1 & F2
terminals..... all seems fine. Is this a faulty solenoid or something
along that line? I've made sure that all my connections are clean and
tight.
Any ideas?

What was it doing wrong before?

It does sound like the solenoid isn't passing power though.

Re: Warn HS9500I wiring
 
Initially, I took it into a shop that did some work on the motor, e.g.,
installed new brushes, etc. When I finally got it back it was all
disassembled except for the motor. I have since reassembled everything
and tested the motor for rotation, etc. Now it seems that I'm having a
problem with the solenoids or connections.

Re: Warn HS9500I wiring
 
It'll do that if there is no direct ground connection to the battery and is
chassis grounded, but you're connecting directly to the battery, I assume.

Re: Warn HS9500I wiring
 
Right now I've got it on a bench with a test battery nearby. I'm
running the ground cable from the battery to the winch mounting bracket
and grounding it that way. Is this perhaps the problem? Where should I
be running the ground cable to?

Mike, as I've said, I had the motor taken apart by an electrical shop
and new brushes, etc. installed. I can't confirm what they actually did
in there but when I function test the motor via by-passing the
solenoids, it works in both directions.

Re: Warn HS9500I wiring
 
Clicking normally means the solenoid is energizing, just the output has
issues.

Bad brushes can draw too much juice and arc out solenoid contacts. If
your solenoids open up, they usually can be cleaned or the contact bolts
actually flipped around to give a new surface. On some you can flip the
main contact washer too.

If you can't open them and have verified the output connections are
clean, then you might have to replace one.

I haven't had my warn HS9000i apart but if it's wired like Bill's
diagram, then I would first suspect circuit C for dirty connections.

Re: Warn HS9500I wiring
 
Clicking normally means the solenoid is energizing, just the output has
issues.

Bad brushes can draw too much juice and arc out solenoid contacts. If
your solenoids open up, they usually can be cleaned or the contact bolts
actually flipped around to give a new surface. On some you can flip the
main contact washer too.

If you can't open them and have verified the output connections are
clean, then you might have to replace one.

I haven't had my warn HS9000i apart but if it's wired like Bill's
diagram, then I would first suspect circuit C for dirty connections.

Re: Warn HS9500I wiring
 
Again I will ask, what was wrong with it before, or did it just go in
for a 'tune up'?

My Warn HS9000i has two power wires, a positive cable to the battery and
a negative cable to the battery. I do not believe they can work without
the negative cable to the battery.....

'If' the brushes were bad and it quit working or got really slow, then
the solenoid contacts can easily be arced out so now they won't pass
power any more.

Do you have a multimeter? It is really easy to see if the solenoid is
passing power out that way.

Re: Warn HS9500I wiring
 
I have an HS9500i and I thought I had a problem with the soleloids when I
realized when I had cleaned my battery terminals I had forgotten to
re-connected the winch's negative battery cable and it was grounding through
the chassis.

There is a ground terminal on the bottom of the motor housing that should be
directly connected to the negative battery terminal; Bill's diagram doesn't
reflect that.

Re: Warn HS9500I wiring
 
Mike, I was using it on a unit driven by my hired man. He said it
wasn't working so I took it in for repair/ tuneup/
refurbishment...........
I did ground to the motor case on the bottom of the motor. The thing
still only "clicked". I have since tested each solenoid and found one
that was shifting but not making connection. I'll buy another one
tomorrow and give it another go. Thanks for all the suggestions. It all
seems so clear once you get a discussion going about a particular
problem!!
