Maxwell Windlass Solenoid

[IrvingVet]

Having an issue with Windlass not working. Looking for solenoid on 2001 Tiara Open.

Doe anyone know the location of the Solenoid on this model?

Thanks

I have a Tiara 2004 3200.
Freedom 500 Maxwell windlass.
I will look at my boat tomorrow to see where it is.
However, I do have a Maxwell manual.
It shows a diagram and says to position the solenoid close to the windlass in a dry area.
I'm guessing under the bed, as the wires probably snake to the rear towards the battery.
Hope this helps for now.
Good Luck.
This site always comes through, just give it time.
Someone will post the answer. They always do.

look inside the anchor locker. I replaced one on a pursuit (pretty much the same boat) and that's where it was.

I have a 1998 3100 open and its in the anchor locker.

Thanks for the assistance. Boat is still out of the water so should be easy to change. Ordered replacement solenoid on-line.

Yes, the solenoids are usually located in the anchor lockers mounted up high under the deck. When you replace it, make sure to douse it in Corrosion inhibiter and keep it sprayed down often. It will last much longer that way.

Good Luck!

Chris, thanks for the tip. You continue to provide great advice for the Tiara owners.
