My Warn 9.5 xp came with a "free" Warn wireless controller. Which promptly died... probably because I have my contactor relocated under the hood and it's hot and/or it wasn't ever meant to be left plugged in. Called Warn...one year warranty...they didn't have them in stock (this was six months ago) and said call back in a month...waited too long and no replacement.

Bought a $12 Amazon wireless winch controller. I have in cab switches...so I can use the in cab switch to turn the winch "on".

I've got positive and negative sorted out. I have yellow and white in and out wires.

Connecting them to the existing yellow and white doesn't work.

Any thoughts on if and how I can wire this?
