In regards to the winch issue...
Same issue occurred with both winch controllers this afternoon. It would pull, stop, and we can hear clicking inside the winch motor when the controller is pushed but the drum doesn't turn to continue pulling. It stopped working altogether and had to be manually turned to bring the cable in.
Possibly related, possibly not, we put the portable winch into the front receiver hitch and noticed sparking coming from the area of the hitch. We moved it to a side hitch receiver to try and recreate the sparking and it happened again, almost like it's arcing inside the receiver. The lieutenant suggested a bad ground wire in the winch from when it had gone out for repair.
IF DEFECT, WAS A REPAIR REQUEST MADE?YES
