I was looking more closely at my 08 Sportsman 800 yesterday after I washed it post ride. I will be adding a Warn winch to it soon and will install it myself. I looked at the wires by the headlight pod to see if I could find the red wire with white line that is referred to in the Warn winch install thread. I actually found 2 groups of wires. One has just a single red wire with white stripe terminated in a hard plastic female receptacle. The other setup has two red wires with white stripes terminated into one soft rubber termination. It looks like that setup is also a pre wired setup for something too. My question is which red wire with white stripe is the one that goes to the winch contactor? Also what is the other wire for? Handwarmers maybe? Thanks for the input.

 

Use the hard plastic connector for the winch. Can use the other wires if adding other optional equipment by just peeling back rubber coating
