Hello: How do I know if this RC will work with my winch? I have a Badland 5000 lb. Most RC's I have found exclude this model. Suggestions?

im pretty sure it will. this unit puts out 12v positive thru the in or out wire. its not plug and play you have to wire it in to your contactor or solenoids. to check open the cover on winch, ground out a test light or mutil-meter and check that when you push your pendant to in or out-it is applying 12v positive leg of current to the contactor or solenoid-if it is your good. it is pretty much universal. my advice too-put a toggle or use at least a key on power supply so interference or a short cant cause it to power the winch up on its own. you know... fire, ouch etc lol not good. mine has been a good little unit. about 150ft range actual. the little 12v key fob battery lasts about an hour of use get a spare at the drug store and throw it in the glove box.

I contacted the manufacturer of my winch and they provided the manufacturer of the proper wireless control.

all depends on how the winch is controlled. can not tell from the harbor freight pic. the web sight lists a remote. the you should be able to tap in to the same circuit that the wired remote uses to activate the control relays. I wired one into a 12k badlands winch.

This remote is very basic. It will work with any three wire winch control. All you have to do is figure out your reverse and forward leads from the existing control, then parallel them into to the same wires. All this remote is, a radio with a very small relay. I took a chance on it but remember, it is only a few bucks.

He would have to check with the trail tamer winch manufacturer. When we bought our remote, it was made for the winch we had on the gator. You would have to make sure the plug ins match. His plug would have to accept a 3 prong plug in a triangle configuration. We can send him a picture of our receptical if that would help. We would need a text number or email address. Thanks. He could email us if he wants or text us at 815-671-8372.

NO! The extension is rated for less than your winch, and the extension would increase the side loading WAAAAY too much.

I installed in a 2003 Polaris Magnum as well as in a CanAm 400. I have a winch on the Polaris and no issues. It's fits very nicely in battery tray. It should fit as well in yours, most ATV batteries are same size. So far I am happy with this product.

I've pulled other ATV 4-wheelers out of some fairly crappy spots. It's only rated for 1500 pounds and I've tugged nearly 1000 pounds with mine. For an inexpensive winch they work good but they're not bullet proof.

The unit comes with a basic mountin plate that would have worked on my Mule, but the one I ordered was much heavier. If I remember right, the site also asked if I might be interested a mounting plate and it then listed the one for my mule. Beyond that you might want to contact the supplier by phone. Note: the winch is made in the UK.

it will work w/any atv winch, but the relay switches in the black box are poor at best. mine burned out in 2 weeks with light use snow plowing at my house. Superwinch told me this kit is to be used a couple times a year to pull your atv out of mud. they did send me a whole new kit.

I do not know but call the manufacturer and ask them. That's what I did and use the remot on the winch on my boat almost Daily and it works great.

I used it on a super winch. 2 wires to the winch. 2 wires to the power and 2 small wires to the switch. Works bery well.

It comes with what looks like a universal mounting plate. I would buy the winch and see if you can use the mounting plate. If you can't, then you would have to buy a plate separately for your specific machine. I already had a mounting plate specifically for my machine when I bought my winch.

The winch cables are quite long about 4 feet I would guess they go to a relay then the battery so if you mount the relay infront of the battery they should work just fine. its a nice set up Duane from Yakima Wa

I'm not sure you would need this with a winch, but there isn't any reason it wouldn't work. You might consider a switched wire for the trigger circuit. That way you could connect the extra battery to the charging system only when you needed to charge it.An extra battery would be good with a winch. I found on my Wrangler that I needed to have the engine running any time I used the winch. Otherwise I quickly had a dead battery. Just be sure to connect the batteries so you have 12 volts and not 24.

I used the Warn 38842 control pack on another brand winch, I called Warn customer service and asked for a control pack for an 8000# winch. This is what they offered.

Most winches have a 4.5x10" mounting holes on bottom. It's universal for most all winches. The winch should fit.

I purchased this winch for our 13' Valco fishing boat, which is not a pontoon boat. My decision was made based on reading a review by a fellow purchaser who said it works. My husband is very handy and he also thinks it will work although it may require adding a surface to mount it. Unfortunately, he hasn't had time to install it yet but I have confidence that he can! Hope this helps and sorry for not responding previously. I had hoped he would get it installed this past summer at our cabin but he was too busy installing new windows. Best.

I would definitely not recommend this for a winch. This is not a power supply that will give much Ah power especially sustained, this is a light duty for basically LED lighting only. You will do nothing but fry out the power supply.

I received an E-mail asking for someone to provide input to this question. Based on the manufacturer's model number listed on this ad I would say that it's the 3200 LB model. the number following the FW FWXXXX is the capacity rating for the winch. However, I really think you need to have the seller respond to verify that this is the correct manufacturer model number.
