I took photo's when I took my 9.5ti apart, loosk similar. Thanks Lothos :thumb:

 

I did too. My next step will be tracing the pinout from the remote into the tray assembly. I have to repair the pin that provides power to the remote as it decayed away.

 

Here is what I have for you Lothos.

 

ok, i'm assuming the 2 #2 cables on the left half go to the pair of contacts on the motor closest to the winch drum and the remaining black wire goes to the farthest solitary contact. if so, mine is identical electrically, they simply chose to connect the wires to the #3 solenoid instead of pairing them on either side probably to make it idiot proof.

 

yeah sure, whatever you say.

I'm not trying to be a sarcastic dick, I just have no clue.

 

not a problem. it really shouldn't be this difficult though as a winch is a simple device. i'll have to double check my grounds and stuff. i'm getting no field voltage is the problem. I get power to the stator in and out, but nada to the motor windings.

 

oops, in my haste getting it reassembled I failed to even think about looking for polarity signs on the side posts of the solenoids. Time to take the bars and #2's off and test solenoid function.

 

Question:

I dont understand where the coils ground to. Those solenoids do not default to ground. On my ramsey (which uses essentially the same motor) it doesn't appear that the windings ground through the case. ----otherwise when you reverse the polarity it would short to ground.

am I missing something ?

 

The solenoid bases are the ground from what I understood.

 

ok, thats not correct......i took my motor apart and figured it out.

This solenoid setup is for a "series wound " motor. The current passes through the field coils that stay stationary in the case. then the current comes out, through the relays, and then through the rotating armature coils.

The motors are reversible---this is done by switching the direction current runs through the field coils. The solenoid setup shown above allows the current in the field coils to be reversed, and still allow the current to pass through the armature coils afterwards.

if anyone else was confused I hope that clears it up, if not I can explain it in better detail later.

 

speaking of were can i get just a new
solenoid

it's worth noting I mixed up field A and the motor stator in my pic above.
