I have an EVO 10 less than a year old. Yesterday my winch started sporadically running on it's own, clicking on/off. Fortunately was running the line out vs pulling in, which would have probably ruined my bumper. I checked my wireless remote which was off. I could turn it on, but it wouldn't seem to connect or control the winch. I called Warn and the person I talked to was helpful and wanted to personally receive the winch, so they're sending me a return box. Disconnected from battery for time being.
I think it's weird and obviously a concern for safety and/or damage. Wondering if anyone else has had this problem and possibly the cause. Seems like a rare problem as I couldn't find anything except one other post on a polaris site.
Probably a total coincidence but I had my wife's '12 911 parked in the same spot in my driveway all week (Jeep in garage w/top off) and the alarm randomly went off a few times for no apparent reason (I have video cameras). It's normally in the garage and this is the first time that happened. Is it possible that my winch isn't defective and there is some kind of radio interference that could do this? Gremlins? Russian hackers? Coronavirus?
Thanks...Arlen.
