Just looking for a little help. I'm wiring up a winch and I found the 3 wires under the speedo (orange green and black). The ornage wire does not have power on it in any key positions is there a fuse for this or is there something else I should connect. thanks for the help

there should be 2 orange wires one is solid orange the other has a tracer. The solid one is the one that you need to hook into. I have put three winches on kinq's this week so i am sure thats the one. It will have power as soon as the ignition switch is turned on. Make sure that when you test for power that your ground is hooked to the negative battery post not just the frame.

The orange wire under the pos should be hot, if not check your fuses. The other two dead end back over your rear storage box.
There are also wires down by the radiator that are hot and ground, you will see two female ends hanging there.
