I have a Smittybuilt XC8 on my taco. It's worked previously ok but now its overheating at the control box and elsewhere. Tonight I free spooled it out hooked it up, engaged it and within a foot of pulling it made a ground wire from the block to the firewall glow red and melt its cover off. I let it cool down, unhooked the cable so there was no load on it. I made it in foot or two in and the control box began to smoke.
I am not super familiar with using a winch. I never had to use one that often. I gone though the original manual, checked wiring, and am out and out stumped. Any help is great.
