No Power?
1. Please make sure your circuit breaker hasn't tripped
2. Reset the E-Stop on the remote
3. Check the brushes. KAC15111-1 KAC1500 replacement Motor Brushes, Set of 2 w/holders. Unscrew the plugs and remove the brushes. Check to make sure the spring is applying force when the cap is screwed in the motor. Make sure the brushes are not broken, cracked and are in good condition, No Rust or Corrosion. Look inside the brush sockets and make sure the inside of the socket housing is clean and no rust or corrosion.
4. Check all connection inside the black cover to make sure there are no loose and disconnected wires, MAKE SURE THE WINCH POWER IS UNPLUGED AND NO VOLTAGE OR ELECTIRAL CONNECTION IS ATTACHED TO THE WINCH BEFORE REMOVING THE BLACK COVER. We have had cases where the electrical cords have been pulled on and the connections inside the cover have come loose. The wiring instructions below should help if a loose wire is found.
Remote doesn't winch in or out?
E-Stop (Emergency Stop) button has been depressed.

To reset the E-Stop, rotate it clockwise (following the directions of the arrows on it) and it will pop out after roughly a quarter turn. This should allow the switch to function again.

KACR15033 Push Button Remote Switch for KAC1500 w/wire cables wiring:
When Duty-cycle of 20-seconds is too-short we recommend using the “Monitoring the motor external temperature plan”, this is the safest way to protect the winch from overheating, Just be careful, Do not check with your hands while the winch is in operation and in use.
Replacing Wire Rope:
The KAC1500 come with 42’ of 3/16” Galvanized Wire Rope
Winch Drum Screw:
A bridge rectifier converts AC to DC, which winch components are DC? The rectifier is the first component after the plug so all the winch components use DC. Modifying the winch would void the warranty, and we do not recommend modifications.
