The Western 56462 controller operates Western straight blade plows using 2-plug relay or 3-plug isolation module systems. Specifically, this genuine 6-pin handheld device features a white connector for under-dash installation. You can easily distinguish this from newer 4-pin systems by counting the pins in the plug.

Additionally, the Western 56462 is fully interchangeable with the 56369 joystick controller. Consequently, operators can choose their preferred control style without changing any wiring. Furthermore, if your controller stops responding, consider replacing the 96437 internal cable. We also offer the 27070 repair connector for the vehicle-side harness.

Moreover, this unit supports the standard 9-pin relay harness and the 3-pin isolation module harness. It also fits the rare 12-pin relay systems found on early 2000s Chevy and GMC trucks. Therefore, this controller remains the essential choice for maintaining older professional Western fleets.
