Expert Reply:
Are you referring to the winch or the Mule not running? If it's the winch, you probably blew the 20A circuit breaker like part # PK54520.
If its the Mule, I'd recommend reviewing how the winch was installed to check for a wiring problem. You'll also want to make sure that the battery is within a few years old and up to the extra strain caused by running a winch. If there's a wiring problem, you could have blown a main fuse or fusible link on the UTV.
