I would like to say that I recently ordered a Venom 2000lb winch kit for my 03 Sportsman 400 and everything worked except the contactor was defective.After notifying Venom Winches they had a new one in my mailbox in 4 days(including the weekend)at no cost to me.I think their customer service and prices are Great.I'd certainly recommend them to anyone

I know a guy, who had one of those Venom winches out at holey land that stripped the gears and had to wrap the cable around the front rack. I believe Laura had to pull his P.O.S out of that mudhole.....

I had a 3000 that I took apart because I thought the gears were stripped. Turns out I did not tighten the crew on the end of the cable enough. The cable slipped on the spool. DUH!
The gears looked pretty strong to me when I had it apart. Went back together no problem. I still use it today, 3 years later.

I just bought another one, we had a bad experience with a 4000 (it wasn't advertised as sealed, we thought it was) so we burned that one, now my buddy runs the 3k on his, no problems.
I broke my warn last ride pulling a rhinny out of the hole...I cracked my winch in 3 places. Not good.
Needless to say it was 116 for a venom 3000...I'll try my luck

I have 2 venom 3000 no issues to date. Normally iff it will power in or out only when installed new. Try switching the pin you have the hot and ground connected on 1 side of the connector and should solve the issue without waiting on another one from venom.

I bought one from them about a year ago. So far its been perfect. Picked up a 2500 one shipped to my door for $116.00. I ride mud allot and its been submerged, caked in mud, beaten on cypres stumps and trees and even made pulls from underwater. Still works right now. I dont even take good care of it. It was really easy to install and whats funny is the contactors will work with warn winches too. Overall great product and I would defently reccomend to anyone looking to buy one.
