no leccy to the contact by the sound of things. have you used a multimeter to measure the electrical contacts and their voltage when off and when in use trying to retract.

have you check the power switching relay or is the winch wired direct to the battery ?

you can buy the solenoids seperatly, they came to about £70 from abril on the ti, but i bet they are cheaper from PG winches

check your motor works properly in both directions 1st, you can bypass the solenoids by doing this process

Maybe an idea to replace it with an allbright type solenoid pack (£40) One unit controls forward and reverse, plus its small in comparison. Cheaper than the Warn packs and very popular as a replacement?

Devon4x4 have the wiring diagram for these type of packs in their tech section.
