S900/S2000 windlass ref B10500 iss.1 | 17
1. Anchor rode pays out independently while windlass is not in use.
• This problem is a result of not securing the rope combined with the gypsy drive cap being slack. Tighten the
gypsy drive cap using the winch handle and always secure the rope independently of the windlass when not in
use.
2. Failure to operate or sluggish operation.
• The majority of these problems are electrical in nature. It is essential that the proper voltage be maintained.
The proper voltage on a 12 Volt system is 13.5 Volts, constant low voltage will damage motor.
• Ensure electrical cable size is large enough to handle the current draw and keep voltage drop within acceptable
limits.
• Check control switches, connections, battery condition, isolator switch, fuse and motor for operation failure.
3. Failure to operate.
• Is there a voltage at the input terminals to the contactor and switches.
Check the circuit breaker/isolator switch and any fuses.
• Operate the switch. Is there voltage at the positive switch terminal on the solenoid.
If not, the switch (or its wiring), is defective.
• Keep the switch activated. Is there voltage at the main output terminal on the contactor.
If not check the contactor coil ground circuit. If okay, replace the contactor.
• Check the voltage at the motor. If voltage of at least 12.5 volts is present and the motor does not operate, the
motor is defective.
