Re: Warn HS9500I wiring
The 4 are needed for the way DC electricity works in two directions. In
order not to have a dead short when you turn it on forward, you need a
second solenoid to break the reverse circuit. Then when you go reverse,
you need another second solenoid to break the forward circuit.
These are long use solenoids that can be smoked out from heavy use even
as you have found out. An intermittent one will let the smoke out on
the first heavy load.
The HS9000i I have can load up enough to smoke the heat shrink off the
battery cable connectors if you stall it while bending a hook open.
That would instantly kill an intermittent solenoid. My warn solenoids
are still working......

Re: Warn HS9500I wiring
Hi Randy,
http://www.----------.com/temp/warnSolenoidsDiagram.jpg We see the
solenoids are not used in series as if one would not be enough. They use
two each direction. We know what triggers a solenoid is one small twelve
volt wire, so from the diagram in and out control switch we see reeling
in would power solenoids two and three, making the connects battery
positive to motor B through to A and out to C through to ground. Reeling
out swaps A and B. The solenoids are like a '56 Ford would use, their
the same as commercial trucks. I would say the solenoids are in less
danger of melting than the motor, that like the best truck starter would
last about thirty seconds, for a winch that would be under full pull,
then you have to let it cool.
