WARN 62132 Power Interrupt Kit with Battery Lead, Hardware, Solenoid, Switch and Wiring

Install only tool 30 minutes, the instructions are easy to fallow and the safety factor makes this a absolute must for any winch installation.

When I installed my winch (WARN VR EVO 12-S) I was concerned about the potential for a short to occur in the event I was ever in a front end collision. There is also the (very remote) possibility of someone who knows what they are doing messing around with the winch if it was always powered, so I wanted to add a power disconnect. After spending WAY too much time trying to find the best solenoid to use based on max current draw and duty cycle I decided to just buy the kit that WARN sells. I did not use the supplied toggle switch since I wired it to one of the factory AUX switches, but I did use a portion of the harness for make the required connections.I haven't used it with any real large load yet, but have tested it with some smaller loads and it works as expected.

The media could not be loaded. This WARN Power Interrupt Kit was purchased to install in a 2021 Jeep JLU in preparation for installing a WARN Zeon 12 winch. It was a bit of a project - but well worth the time. This kit allows you to use a switch inside the cabin to power your winch - rather than having power running to your winch all the time. This is important for several reasons; if you're in a front-end collision there's no high-amp live line vulnerable to cause fires or other problems compounding the accident. It also prevents bad actors from messing with your winch by not enabling power to the winch without first gaining access to inside the Jeep (you still need the winch's remote control to operate the winch).During research several calls to WARN confirmed this to be the right kit for intended use. The most difficult part of installing this kit is figuring out where - and how - to mount the solenoid in the already crowded engine bay. A sturdy, steel bracket was purchased (also off Amazon) and modified to mount firmly, creating a solid platform for the substantial solenoid. The bracket was coated with several coats of FlexSeal after drilling the appropriate mounting holes. Once the FlexSeal dried it was riv-nutted using one existing hole, and drilling one new hole in the fender well.Once the bracket/solenoid are mounted, running wires is easy. If you have the Aux Switch package (from factory), wires are stubbed out on passenger side engine bay. If you don't have the Aux Switch Package from factory, the kit provides a switch with appropriate gauge wiring. Make sure to disconnect both negative battery cables (from main and auxiliary battery) before doing any wiring. The kit also includes 4 rubberized boots to slip over the terminal connections. They take a little work to massage into place (remember to slip them onto the wire before fastening to the solenoid) - but a heat gun helped soften them up enough to re-form snugly around the nuts.Fiberglass heat shielding (also from Amazon) was used to further protect the heavy-gauge positive (and negative) wires, then wrapped in friction tape at the ends to secure.Anyone who runs an electric winch on front of their vehicle should have something like this installed for safety, and peace of mind. Some guys piece together different bits to save money. I bought this kit - even though I didn't use the switch - because I knew everything was rated to properly work together, eliminating any variables. WARN is a solid company who's been around a long time and really knows their stuff. I can highly recommend this WARN Power Interrupt Kit.

I used this to being able to control the power to my winch. Instead of using the included switch I did connect the switch part to my Voswitch panel which I can control from inside the car. This turns on the power to the winch and cuts if off when I want to. It works great! I wish there would be multiple different mounting brackets available for this unit though.

High quality as expected. Kit comes with everything you need. Installed on a 2016 Ram 2500 6.7. Utilized my factory auxiliary OEM switch box for a clean look. Haven't had any issues and couldn't be happier. Recommend.

I used it for a Warn Zeon 12-S platinum winch on a Bronco Raptor. Followed the instructions mostly BUT modified it so that the yellow wire goes straight to the aux wire. I connect mine to Aux 6 which is 10 amps. Works great!

I purchased this kit and installed it on a 2021 JTRD Jeep. Good fit and a good, very solid feel. Wire and boots are good quality. I was very happy with the installation and operation. Two years in, after very light use, the solenoid quit and needs to be replaced. Given the brand, I have to say I was disappointed with the lack of longevity.

The beauty of this kit is in the included boots and that they make a complete kit.Otherwise you may be able to piece something together for less cost.The included control wire is much heavier gauge than the ground wire which is odd but not a show stopper.
