Need some help with a Warn Winch

[Fix14wd]

Does anybody know what the part number of the wired remote is that I can order for this Warn EVO VR 8s winch?
I bought a used 2021 Rubicon that came with the winch, but there was no remote for it. Warn has apparently discontinued the remote and I can't seem to find a part number for replacement. I've emailed and called Warn, who turned me over to LKQ and/or Meyer. Meyer told me I need to contact a local Warn distributor such as 4 Wheel parts. 4 Wheel Parts doesn't know for sure which remote I need. They think it's a 83655.

That plug and remote (83655) looks identical to my Zeon.

I thought there was a safety recall on a few models of Warn winch remotes including yours and that Warn was required to provide a replacement.

I was thinking the same thing. My daughter has a ZEON and her remote didn't work with it.

I think since I don't have the original remote they felt I should purchase one. However, they were absolutely no help when I had them on the phone.

That’s disappointing. @Northridge4x4 is a Warn authorized retailer. I wonder if they can help.

Where are you located? I have an extra EVO wired remote and cable just sitting around that I don't want or need anymore

That would be awesome! I'll contact you privately.

We can totally help you. Couple things.

Keep in mind the Recall was on the wireless remote and its only because people were allowing them to lay on the floor board and get wet.. Not smart...

PM us your serial number on the winch and we will work on getting you the correct part number. It will be a couple day process. also include your full name and contact info
