Main Winch Fails to Drop / Lockout Active
Diagnosis & fix steps
LOGIC: Main Kelly Winch Brake Release Solenoid Open Circuit.
ACTION: Measure solenoid coil resistance on the main winch manifold (~24Ω). Inspect wire leads passing through the upper turntable swivel joint for wire fatigue.
Red Seal field insights
Safety Interlock: If the SPM detects an open circuit on the mechanical brake release solenoid, it locks out winch down-command outputs to prevent free-fall.
