Default warn powerplant quit, help
went to use my powerplant this weekend, it spooled out fine with remote and then when i went to spool it in .... nothing. The red light on the remote blinks and nothing happens. Is this something simple I can fix? Can someone help me?

I maybe mistaken, but doesn't the red light mean overheat? If it hasn't been overworked maybe the blinking red light means some type of internal fault. Also, you may want to check the fuses and the clutch engagement.

There is another reason for the powerplant, air! Believe me otherwise I would buy a much cheaper one.
