It's a wireless remote. The older m8000 used a hard wired remote that you plugged into the winch. This plugs into the same spot, but with increased freedom from not having a cord. Thanks for watching.
The process he went through was exactly what I just did “theres a bracket that mounts to something round, there’s nothing round in my car, where am I going to screw this thing to? F-it I’ll use velcro”
I believe it is the WARN 90287. That is the number I just pulled up for a 5 pin plug in. Thanks for the comment, and good luck. I would recommend still taking your wired remote as a back up.
The only battery for this is in the controller. The transmitter is powered when you plug it into the winch. I have since sold my green TJ in this video, however, I kept this controller...and it works great on my new Jeep. Hope this helps.
@@BobTheBreaker9 it is a separate unit. The transmitter only gets power when it's attached to the winch. It's only attached when you are going to use it. Mine spends all its time in the glovebox. The had held controller is powered by internal batteries. You should be fine for your set up.
I have this same control system and I am able to disconnect the transmitter from the winch and throw it in my glove box. I do not have to resync the controller when I reattach it to the winch. I've only had to sync it once when I first got it. Hope this answers you question.
Yes...and no... I always kept mine transmitter in the center, then plugged it into the winch when I needed it. I then put it back in the Jeep when I was done. If I found myself on a technical trail where there was a potential to use the winch, I would plug it in and leave it there until I was off the trail.

" you fix the jeep, the jeep fixes you" is the best explanation I've ever heard.
Truth! Thanks for the comment
Nice video. I'm going to look for one for my XRC 9500 now! I'm really surprised you haven't picked up more subscribers. Keep up the good content.
Thank you for the comment.
Such a satisfying feeling having a wireless control winch, so much more freedom and less stress if you are in a bog hole haha
Yes it is. Thanks for the comment.
What’s the distance and what I seen no wiring?

🤣
Is there any way you can tell me what the model number is on that wireless Warn remote kit. I have the exact same winch

@@DunnageGarage OK thank you Bud
I need to do this for my trailer.
Thanks for watching. Yep this would be great on a trailer.
Would u have to resync if u disconnected it from the battery?

@@DunnageGarage I was going to use it on a trailer which doesn’t have constant power is why I was asking

Wait. So you have to get out and plug it in every time?

Depends, do you care if it gets stolen or not?
Like anything someone can just walk off with, probably not advisable. Do you not have to get out to hook up the cable anyways?
Does it work on warn 8274
I am not sure. I would guess if it has the same number of pins as the handheld in the connector it SHOULD.
Mount it on the shifter
Thanks for the comment. I found that to be in my way. Good idea though, thanks!
mount it on front of your shifter !!
Good idea, thanks for watching.
Mount it inside glovebix
