Snowplow Controls

Generally, no. Since both controls are priced similarly and are often fully interchangeable, the choice comes down to personal preference. We recommend selecting the style that feels most ergonomic and intuitive for your specific grip and plowing habits.

This indicates a communication breakdown between your controller and the plow module. First, verify that all harnesses are tightly connected, clean any corrosion from the battery plug pins, and inspect your wiring for damage. If these steps do not resolve the issue, please contact a factory-authorized dealer for professional diagnostics and repair.

4-pin and 6-pin controllers support different, non-interchangeable electrical generations. The 4-pin controller is designed for the modern FLEET FLEX system, which uses digital communication to allow interchangeability between current plow models, while the 6-pin controller is intended for older relay or isolation module systems. Because these systems utilize different signaling technologies, you cannot use them interchangeably. Match the controller’s pin count to your specific plow’s electrical generation to ensure proper operation.
