Hey guys,

Took on a quick a simple little project that I am sure will prove to be handy. I added a laser etched rocker switch to the blank panel on my Uforce800 dash. I already have the wireless control for when I am outside the machine so I decided to just utilize the the factory plug and recpticle in the glove box. I just cut off the hand control off the wire, drilled a small hole in the side of the glove box to feed the wire thru and hooked it up to the switch I installed. Cost was under $10 for the project. Make sure your cord is not plugged in to the socket when ya cut the cord. This is not key controlled power(always Hot). Black wire hooks to corresponding terminal for the winch IN control. Green wire hooks to the corresponding terminal for the winch OUT control. Red wire hooks to the power feed which happened to be in the center of the in and out terminal on my rocker switch. Pretty easy to remember the hook up like this. Green go get it. Black bring back. Red is hot




1 laser etched winch rocker switch
3 zip ties
3 female crimp on electrical connectors.

On my to-do list

I bought that same switch (from Amazon) and did the same thing on my Zforce.  I dont really use a winch very often but it is nice not having to hook up anything when you need to pull yourself or someone out ....all you have to do it hit the button.

I did the same thing works great when using the winch for the snow plow instead of the hand control

I put one in. It wouldn't fit in the lower area of my z6. The lower bar that supports the dash is in the way of the bottom terminals. Had to put it where the turn signal would be. To my horror, I found out that the factory wiring is on a constant power. I am going to leave the winch in free spool until I can get that corrected. I can picture my kids pulling in the front of the machine or wrecking the winch.

No kids for me,to,worry about so I am fine with it being constant power..... I did mention that is it always hot my initial post

I must have missed it. I will fix it later. We have a ride coming up so I don't have time to deal with it now.
