[QUOTE="TreeClimber, post: 1563394, member: 16101"] My gut instinct is that you have a bad ground, or, corrosion in the cable ends. If it were my rig, I'd swap the cables with the other winch (with known good cables) and try again. Making sure to look at corrosion issues on the M8000 motor ground lug, and at the battery negative post. The corrosion could exist inside the copper lugs, where they were crimped onto the wires. If the problem still persists, I'd put that winch on Craigslist for $50 or $75 and let me buy it...er...I mean, I'd probably look at the solenoid pack, or, a bad motor. But my gut says bad ground.
