I have a 2012 Powerwagon with factory installed winch. I bought the vehicle new in 2011 and the winch has worked well ever since then and I have used it several times. Recently, when I tried to use it, it would run about 15 seconds or so and then stop. I would wait about 15 to 30 seconds and then it would work for another 15 secs then stop. Same thing happens in both directions and does the same thing whether it is under load or not. I checked the truck fuse panel but did not see any circuit breakers listed for the winch. Anybody have any ideas?

 

Gonna need a wiring diagram methinks. Likely something is getting hot, and tripping a breaker stashed somewhere in the circuit. I don't have wiring diagrams for the winch though... so, no clue where it would be. Moving this to Fourth Gen Ram section for ya.
