Good To Know
Q: Will this contactor replace the original solenoid pack on my Badlands winch? A: This 12V 500A unit is designed to replace the solenoid assembly on most 5000 to 7000-pound Badlands and Warn winches. Verify your winch's current draw and terminal configuration to ensure a match.
Q: Does this relay contactor require any special wiring? A: No, it uses standard battery cable connections and operates from a low-current remote switch, just like the original solenoid. You can typically reuse your existing wiring and remote control.
Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
