Quick connects for winch help!

[Sneakysilver]

Ok so I got a set of quick disconnects with my cradle (tough stuff) and no instructions to use them. I don't see how you attach the wire to them. Trying to get this hooked up for this weekend leaving tmrw night. Thanks in advance

My advice may or may not apply, but those look very similar to the connects on my snow plow. If they are in fact the same, you need to remove the metal contact through the back of the plug and then solder it to the wire.

That's what I was thinking thanks! Will find out tonight

Yep, these are what I have for my Winch/Trailer/etc. They are called Anderson Plugs so a quick search on Google/Youtube should show you how to do it.

Here is a guy with a land rover soldering the 175 Amp version http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ph7h6rYZnVI (if you skip straight to 1 min 50 sec in you get to the section you need)

If you only doing the small ones you can simply use a crimp tool http://youtu.be/OyzAK84nCs4

I usually pinch them first, then solder them( use torch to get hot enough), then shrink wrap(heavy duty) them, then assemble.
