Well if this happens to all winches then I am in trouble cos I aint got any solinoids at all. I got a PTO.
Back topic. My dad doesnt really maintain his winch and it works fine for the last 3yrs (was on car before he brought it aswell).
I would be taking it back and say fix.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY....
I used to sell both Warn and Superwinch .
They both had the same problems with the solenoids.Poorly sealed allowing moisture to enter and corrosion.This coupled with intermittant use caused continual problems.
One factory brochure I read said operate the winch after each trip to heat it up and dry out moisture.
There are several posts about putting the solenoids in a sealed plastic box to keep them dry.
