I need some help with the a winch ive bought , its a super winch EP9.0,
I have no instructions so a bit stuck ,the wiring is a bit wrong to me but I need to find out wich wires from the selonid terminals go to what terminal on the motor, there are three wires on the top of the motor

F2 lead goes to F2 terminal
F1 lead goes to A terminal ?
A lead goes to F1 terminal ?
this is really confusing because I don't know what wires go where even thou they are marked , the selonids might be wired wrong as well.
I have powered up and the motor will turn one way but don't other way it just buzzes .

Hi! Sorry to tag on to this...but...
I have decided to reinstall my champion 8000ewx winch that has been sat nice and dry in my shed for the past few years...

I have stripped it down and inside it looks brand spanking new! Even the motor was still shiny!! The clutch had ceased but with a little tinkering it now turns and opporates perfectly!

So after being surprised at how easy this was (I know right), I figured I'd test the electrics..... I have never had this wired up myself and just acquired it a few years ago...

My first question is.. does anyone have a wiring diagram for this winch - I cannot find one anywhere!!
I have tried to wire this up to test it on the bench with a battery and I cannot get the motor to turn...the solenoid (If that's what it's called) clicks in both forward and reverse but the motor doesn't run...

When i opened it up there was no dirt, corrosion or signs of water ingress anywhere.... HELP!!

Or it's going in the bin lol
