Ye that's what I was thinking. I'll be having a closer look into a location up front probably Sunday. Love only having one day off a week lol.

In the gq we have a relay cover right next to the main batter with a large open area under it.
So I have mine stripped down and mounted there. I have the remote plug there aswell and the wireless reciver.
I'll take a shot today
If you open that plastic container, you might find that the solenoid itself is much smaller so it will give you more options..
I have mounted mine inside the back of the bullbar and installed a wireless remote system. If I have to I can get under the front and plug in a cable - but I have had this system for a number of years now and the remote works fine everytime. If you get a solid state relay system then water is not a problem. Just seal the connections when you install it.
my control box is mounted up under the rad
with the plug mounted in the bull bar next to the winch
and wired controls on the dash
On the fire wall is a long way. Agree with Winnie the voltage drop will be high. Note though, if you are committed to using the supplied pre crimped cables at the supplied length then anywhere they reach is the same ;). Make zero difference.
If your happy to shorten the cables to suit your install and dan re crimp the as close as possible. I would be opening that control box up and see what is inside for sure.
Ye. I really wasn't a fan of up on the fire wall either.
Opened up the box and this is what I have got.

This unit should be water resistant on itself right?? The casing didn't actually have any seals anywhere??
In theory how much risk would it be having it out of the case behind one of the battery's??
I would prefer the safer mounting option,
So it basically comes down to out of case behind battery, or in case beside winch.??
As for wiring I'll do what I have to :)
I just don't want risk of failure when I actually need it :P
The photo didn't work mate. Try again please or log on via tappatalk and post it from there from your phone.Quote:
