Switching relays on an electric winch in Cogolin
Change of relay of an electric winch on a Oceanis 35.1 sailboat at the port of Cogolin
An electric winch is a comfort element on board. Indeed, this equipment assists the sailor in his actions. It ensures manoeuvrability and safety on board a sailboat. In a recent intervention at the port of Cogolin, we have replaced the defective relay of an electric winch on an Oceanis 35.1 of the brand Beneteau. This technical service enabled the owner to regain optimal operation of his equipment. A review of this operation carried out with precision.
Diagnosis and fault identification
Symptoms and system inspection.
The sailboat owner contacted us after finding a failure of the electric winch, which no longer responded properly to the controls. After a thorough inspection of the power supply circuit and electrical components, we identified a defective relay that prevented the system from functioning properly.
Relay replacement and performance tests.
Once the failure was localized, we changed the relay by following several steps:
- Secure disconnection of the electrical circuit,
- Removal of the worn relay and installation of a new and compatible model,
- Verification of wiring and connections to ensure optimum current transmission.
After installation, we performed several tests to ensure the winch's correct response to the demands.
