[QUOTE="tobyw, post: 1564637, member: 16413"] Bringing this back up... I sold the M8000 to a buddy that made me an offer I couldn't refuse. Since then however, I have finished work on my '47 CJ-2A and slapped on a Warn 8274 that has been in our family since new. Sometime in the mid 80's my old man swapped out all of the solenoids for some golf cart solenoids, and it worked like a charm up until he pulled it off his '77 Bronco about 5 years ago. Since then it has been sitting in a corner of his shop. Long story short, it's now on my flatty but not working. No clicks, pops, buzzes, nothing. I have cleaned all terminal connections, verified I'm getting full battery voltage to the control panel. Using my ohm meter set to continuity, I verified the controller is working and providing a path to the solenoids as you would expect. However, when I have power to it, there is no action whatsoever. I put my volt meter on the solenoid stud that is supposed to receive power from the controller in either forward or reverse, and nothing... Where is the juice going and why isn't this d@mn thing working?! I'm an electrical idiot, so can you tell me how to ohm out the motor? [/QUOTE]
