Getting ready to wire up WARN Zeon

[BobK]

Today my son and I installed my new JCR Offroad bumpers (front and rear) and WARN Zeon 10-s winch - pics to follow in the morning, too dark for photo taking right now!

We ran the wiring harness up into the engine compartment and zip tied the two cables near the battery.

Sometime this week I plan to take on the task of fully connecting it and using one of the AUX switches that were an option I purchased with the JLUR. I have not yet rear the Jeep manual on configuring the switch using the touch panel display, I also know that there is some wiring location under the hood that corresponds to the AUX switches.

Without telling me to RTFM, does anyone have any words of wisdom on this task. Past experience? Any gotchas?



Also, I purchased the WARN Power Interrupt Kit. Does anyone know anything about this? How does this work with the AUX switch setup?

It is cake, jsut wired up a set of ridge spots and side shooters to the aux switches. There is a ground location right next to the switches as well. I soldered and shrink wrapped the connections vs butt connection just for waterproofing. lights do not draw anywhere near the amp capacity of the lines so you will be fine there. Aux1 is side shooters, aux2 is spots, 3 will be rear lights where i do a rear bumper and aux4 will be rock lights.

I do not think you will need to power interrupt kit. You can directly connect it to the battery and call it a day. Since the winch wont draw power unless you turn it on all you would be doing is adding an additional step in the process by using the aux switch to get it to turn on. I can see why you might want to use it but you do not really need it IMHO.
