Wanted WARN 4 PIN Winch Controller needed

[777Gage]

Thanks krs2fur,
I've seen a couple of plug builds with the generic 4 pin plug, but was hoping someone had a stock remote before I tore it apart and rebuilt the winch.

Low on the priority list for now

Bump for me this time around

Buy this and wire end in to 5-pin which is easy to find:

Amazon product ASIN B0002RNSKU
Originals are getting hard to find, and I’ve bought a few that no longer worked.

Good luck!

Who is looking for one of these? @swamp-thing @777Gage or @cims1970fj40 ?

I think I have one, but I am not sure whose thread this is.

Thanks Brian — I was the op on this — I sent you a PM

@bmoonhajjar - Thanks Brian, please hook up @swamp-thing - I've since sold my 8274

Thanks for reaching out

No worries Cim. I just didn't want to contact the wrong guy.

I have a controller but it’s one that someone made

I have a 3 pin and a 5 pin, but no 4 pin.

Thanks for checking! I’ll probably just switch over to a five pin. They still sell the kit. I like the medal lip on the control box but whatever at this point. Also I want a clean looking remote and that’s not going to happen with a used 4 pin that nobody has.

I have a 4 pin controller. Look just like a Warn but it has a metal plate behind the switch marked Pierce. I think I found it on eBay years ago. Might try looking for Pierce controllers.

Also have an 8274 to rebuild. It has a 3 pin wire but no controller head. Looks like a 4 pin but the 4th pin is not there

Here’s mine

 

[Yes]

I have one also

Do all the four pin have what looks like a generic steel plug? I was given 5,000# Warn winch minus the hand control. This was probably over twenty years ago. Bought the five pin controller. Plug is molded. See pictures of other plug with a molded end. If the steel four pin will come apart to wire an easy solution might be to buy a five controller and wire it the generic plug.
My 73 FJ40 came with a winch made from a military jet engine starter. Would have to check but believe it that four pin jack. Haven't the controller in years but cord looks like it was made from an orange extension cord.

Yeah it looks like a regular extension cord. I ordered a five pin controller and the plastic plug that mounts to the control box. I might just change out the whole thing since it was already shipped through Amazon. Thanks for replying.

Anyone know where you can find the NUT that goes on the back of the 4 pin remote?
Have a good remote, but the nut holding the wire is broken.
