It looks like your S4500 has the plug that is older than the "Old Style" like the # SW48YR replacement remote has. Unfortunately, according to Superwinch there is no replacement option for this remote, and it is not possible to adapt a newer remote so it will work with your winch.
This means the only option for a working remote is to completely replace the winch. The S4500 has been discontinued so I recommend the Superwinch S5500 Trailer Winch # SW1455200. This has a 5,500 lb line pull and comes with a 3-year warranty on electrical components and lifetime warranty on mechanical components.
