What spindle do you have? And how did it get controlled before? Like on my dewalt I use a relay to turn the power to the router on and off, and the switch is always in the on-position. When it doesn’t work (and I see the led on the power strip showing the right mode) my first go-to is the brushes have worn out.

My first thought is you need to stop using the winder. It’s slower to do it by hand, but think of it this way; those singles were strong enough to hold up your spindle on their own the first go-around.
