Heated grips no longer working

[dclifford]

I have a set of oxford heated grips and they have stopped working. I have checked the wiring and it is all good. There is voltage right up to the box. I think I will have open it up to have a look.
Anyone got any ideas?

Is there a fuse in the box that may have blown?
Is the switch working correctly?

i have never had heated grips so thats all i can think of

have you checked the wiring (resistence in Ohm's) around the hand grip's
if there's an open circuit then there will be no heat..

The fuse is fine. There is voltage right up to the control box. The LED won't light when I press the switch. I guess I will need to check everything else.

Do they not have a thermostat /Rheostat thing that turns them off?

Over here it is summer :P

I found the problem. It was a problem with the wiring. The wiring on the hand gip side of the control box was broken. The part that has the 3 connectors on the end of it. The 2 connectors for the hand grips are actually connected together using crimps. The wiring at the crimps had broken free. Cant understand why as thet neve moved because they wire was cable tied to the bike and the wire never streched.
I soldered the wires together and it all works fine now.
