Today we are troubleshooting the clicking noise in my smittybilt winch. I went to winch someone out and the solenoid was clicking. I had originally thought there was relays inside that was clicking but that was soon discovered not to be the issue. I've had issue before with this smittybilt winch making clicking noise the first time was a questionable ground I thought which I still don't think was the answer. I was using my multimeter to troubleshoot the clicking noise when I measured a large voltage drop and seen sparks. It seems the solenoid cover needs a good ground. I added another ground and we'll see if this issue comes back if it does then i'll look into replacing the winch solenoid.
