Thanks everone for these suggestions and info. I do in fact already have #10 wire installed and have a 20 amp circut breaker in the hot line from the truck battery. It is located in the #10 wire about 18 inches from the battery and since I moved this controller from my 1997 GMC truck to this Ford which did not have the factory towing kit I had to install all the wiring myself. The brake circut is # 10 wire also and has a 20 amp breaker in it about 18 inches after the battery connection. The ground wire is also #10 wire from the battery all the way through the plug contacts to the trailer so that there is a ground wire connected to the trailer frame. If I used the idea from John T for a relay, where would the relay pick up its turn on power from? Would it connect to the charging feed wire just before it connected to the winch battery? Or if a diode is better, what size diode would be needed? Also there are no back up lights on the trailer. If I have the truck running while using the winch will the truck system be in danger?
