Helped my neighbour troubleshoot his Lewmar windlass, a nice shiny useless lump in his chain locker. Traced it to a bad solenoid. When we took the very expensive combination up/down solenoid apart we found the low-current (activator) terminals had corroded through! A marine part from a marine windlass manufacturer!
So if you want to install one of their windlass things, use Cole Hersee or similar, don't waste your time with their crap brand-name electrics. I know this is only one example, but really?
