the wheeler has power when you turn the key/kill switch on?

 

yeah but it doesnt seem like much power cuz the headlights r really dim when i turn the key on

 

ok. well that sounds like an issue with the battery cable. or one of the connection ends on the cable. and the winch didnt work when you tryed to use it?

 

no it didnt work and the two post solenoid clicks when i push the winch buttons, the same solednoid clicks when i try starting it with the key

 

so the same solinoid clickes with either switch?

 

yeah

 

did you just get this wheeler? sounds like some major electrial issues. the wich switch will only run the 4 post solinoid, and the starter switch will only run the 2 post solinoid. other than that im flusterd. i still think its the battery cable. but if the switch is running more than one thing it sounds like wireing issues.

 

ok well if the four post is the winch then its the starter solenoid that clicks and i apprecitate you taking the time. i got a manual and when it warms up im going to take the side panels off and follow wirings and check em to the wiring diagrams.

 

if you have a wire diagram id say follow that. but yes if its rectangle, black about 2inches thick, has 4 posts it will be the winch solinoid. so id say chck the wires. but check the main batter cable, for cracks, croshion and stuff. sorry i couldnt be of more help.
