These videos on your retrofitting these HF wiresless controllers are great! Tired of all these Chinese winches being the only option out of the box with wireless controllers so this is a huge help to steer me away from those.
You are great I was contemplating doing something like this. I have a warn winch with no controller I want to set up I rescued from a parts rig that was heading for the junk yard.
So I am currently in the process of wiring that badlands remote into a worn VR Evo 12. The difference being I cannot wire mine to the plug the way you did because it uses a microcontroller. So when I wire the receiver directly to the solenoid I keep poped my fuse. I was wondering if I am missing something, or if anyone could give me insight
Some crackhead stole my remote from my glove box. This was incredibly helpful for using a $35 dollar generic remote and not buying the $150 Warn remote. Thanks for posting!
Rugged Radio sells one that is guaranteed to work but expensive. Amazon has them as well but often have incorrect hardware so you may have to find a bolt.
I'd get rid of those small pins, altogether and use a 3 wire trailer connection just like warn 8274 winches used. They did this then for user friendliness... Originally
Great help in understanding the Warn wiring set up and the workaround.
Glad you found it helpful.

Glad you found them helpful. They were fun to do and I use them regularly on both my winches.
Thanks. very clear good drawing.
Thank you. Glad it was helpful.

Thanks. I'm glad you found it helpful. That was a fun one to figure out and make happen.

could you post all your part # for me thank you

Glad it was helpful for you.
If you're scared of voiding the warranty by messing with the wiring, shouldn't the corroded factory wiring been under warranty?
Do you remember the pin layout for the chrysler harness on the controller side?

I don't. I wish I did for you.
@@IronsideAdventures801 I appreciate the reply and it's all good!

Not a bad idea. Might have to consider that next time I have a problem with it.
