That's Britpart for you!
For vastly less than the figure you mention you could replace the entire solenoid pack with an Albright solenoid, as used on good quality winches. |

Looks like an Albright copy they have there in that box.
My suggestion would be to simply remove and wire in a different cut off switch. Can you provide any more pictures that reveal how it's fitted and wired ? |

Looking again - is it integrated into the control solenoid in your picture ?

Another thought - is that the only cut off switch between the battery and the winch?
If so, I would suggest that you do away with it altogether and fit one as close to the battery as possibly, and either accessible only from inside the vehicle or one with a removable key. There's no way I would run a vehicle with the only isolator on the winch itself, for two reasons. Firstly, in the event of a frontal impact there is a risk of a very major short circuit and subsequent almost inevitable fire, and secondly there is a risk of lowlifes deciding it would be fun to "cheesewire" my vehicle. |

Would a square section of spindle allow you to re-join the two parts?
