Troubleshooting your Ramsey automotive winch when it won't run

• Check for power. Make sure that you vehicle's electrical system is sending power to the winch. Check for a blown fuse in the vehicle's fuse box if the winch isn't getting power.
• Shut off electrical power to the winch and check the wiring between the activation switch and winch motor. Reconnect any loose wires and repair any broken wires.
• Check the winch motor. See if the winch drive shaft spins freely. If the shaft is bound up, you'll likely need to replace the motor.
