Heated grips stopped working 08 Ultra CVO
« on: October 05, 2012, 08:44:11 PM »

The heated grips stopped working on my 2008 Ultra CVO.  I checked the main fuse on the left side of the bike; fuse was good (even replaced it to make sure).  I downloaded the wiring diagram that was posted (thanks!), and it appears there's a second 5A fuse somewhere on the bike.  Problem is, I can't figure out the location of the second fuse.  Anyone have any recommendations?  Sorry if I posted twice...trying to learn this web site:)

I've got a brand new set of Heat Demons that I bought for my FLHXSE3 that I thought would work with my Wild 1 575 bars, but won't.  I'd sell them for $100.00 if you are interested.

Thanks,

Ryan

Why wont they work with the 575s? I thought they had the ID issue resolved.

According to the Wild One Chubby tech people, the right handle bar grip of the 575's needs to be honed out by the thickness of a dime to enable the Heat Demon's to fit.  Before I ordered them, I read on here several people that have used them successfully without reeming out the bar.  So, I thought I would try them anyway.

On the 575 bars that I received, there is "NO WAY" the Heat Demons will fit unless the bars are altered.  The throttle by wire is actually snug by itself.  I looked at the thickness of the bar and imagined making it thinner and then I thought of the possibliity of hitting a pot hole and having the right grip still in my hand but not attached to the bar!  So, I decided not to alter the bar.  Therefore, brand new Heat Demons for sale!
