Hi everyone, can anyone assist with where the on/off bottom might be on a 1998 Cobalt 293 for the Anchor Winch. I've looked at the electrical panel in the cabin, nothing says anchor/winch. Thanks in advance.

Hey Gil. Welcome to the Cobaltchat forum. So glad you found us!
Some of our winch experts will chime in shortly. Any pics of your 293?
Again welcome aboard mate!

Under the starboard rear seat. Push in to activate. Sometimes it takes a good firm punch.

Thanks - I think I need to replace that part. It is called - Maxwell 135A master windlass circuit breaker.

Is it actuating? You can also check voltage on the backside accessed through the engine compartment.
I thought the mine was broke when I first got my 293. Give it a good hard smack with the bottom of your hand.

How far should the actuator move in either direction? Mine seems to only move about 1/4 of an inch?

That's it. Doesn't take much.
