Wander Lead wiring

Afternoon All.

Hope everyone is well!

Question if I may. One of our 18T has a tail lift and the Wander lead is up the spout so we got a new “male” plug for it
Thing is, someone took the wires out of the old one but now we cant remember what wires go!

It is a 7 pin but there are only 4 wires.
It is a Dhollandier and has 2 buttons, up and down.

I can’t fine any diagrams anywhere.

Thanks folks :slight_smile:

Can you look at the back of the female socket? And hope (!) the wire colours correspond.
PS. phone camera is good when disassembling stuff.

Try opening the female end I think you will see the way they are connected . We had a problem the same , I am sure 2 of the wires go in to one, Hope this helps.all the from Frank.

I was only jesting but that complete control lead was on eBay I think, about 60 quid.

You are sorted now, but I recall over 40 years ago I used to build caravan transporters to which we fitted an electric winch at the rear of the cab or headboard, these things came with a remote wander lead and a very flimsy plug and socket, much like the socket your gran uses to charge her mobility scooter, these got broken so easily. We came up with a simple fix which anyone could repair anywhere in the UK.

We wired the winch directly to a household 3 pin socket, we fitted one about half way down the vehicle and one at the rear. The control box had the plug chopped off and we put on a waterproof 13 amp household plug, if you wanted a longer wander lead you used a standard 13amp extension lead. It worked well.

The last time I used a winch though, it was remote control and wireless, so as long as the sensor could see me, the winch went North or South, In or Out with no cable necessary.
