corym Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 Hey gang. I need some of your collective knowledge. I just got some heated grips for my 2000 1100RT. I have tested out the grips themselves and they are roughly 4.6 Ohms each. I installed the 3 position switch and have tested it out as well. Finally I verified that the 15amp fuse is still good. Here's the problem...the grips don't feel as if they are heating up at all. Any ideas would help me out. Thank you. Link to comment
corym Posted August 20, 2007 Author Share Posted August 20, 2007 Also I don't have any voltage at the 4pin connector where you put the heat grip pins in. The fuse is not blown though. Link to comment
Bprimm Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 Finally I verified that the 15amp fuse is still good. fuse for grips is 4 amp (#7) Link to comment
corym Posted August 21, 2007 Author Share Posted August 21, 2007 Yeah I have a 4 amp in there. Previously it was 15amp. Also at that grip 'connector' I have .04 volts. Any ideas?? Link to comment
Bprimm Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 The most common mistake made is not matching up the black and brown wires when joining the connector. The second most common is not realizing that "off" is the middle position of the rocker. If those two items are under control... check for readings to the switch and out the switch.. Link to comment
corym Posted August 21, 2007 Author Share Posted August 21, 2007 Yeah I was hoping that I just didn't have the wires matched up but that's not the case. Also the switch is in working order with up=high middle=off and down=low. I looked through my Clymer manual but that didn't do to much for me, except point me to a relay. However at this point I don't want to shoot in different directions. Link to comment
