Hi guys and girls,

First I wanna start with saying I am.not the most knowledgeable person when it comes to 12volt.
Truth be told I don't even know how to change out a stereo.
But this year I have decided I wanted to become more experience in the 12 volt department as a self progression pact I've made to myself where every year I pick something to learn as a skill to better myself.

So to start with my winch is playing funny buggers,

When you connect the cable to it amd press unwind it goes out no problem.... hook it up to a tree and then put strain on it and it decided to cut out completly... then I will play with the controller pressing ( wind wind wind) on the controller and nothing, let it sit there for a bit... then will sort of work then stop again.

Any ideas?

Also if you could advise what I'd need tools wise to check ie multimeter etc that would be great.
Cheers
