 |
|
Hi all!
I'm having some trouble in connecting the heated grips I bought for my K RS. They come from a K LT (compatible, right?), but it seems that there some parts missing. I can't tell which. 
So, this is all I have:
Two grips with wires and one button, also with wires.
Can someone tell me what more wires and connections are required? Better: does someone have the heated grips wiring scheme from the LT?
My RS's handlebar doesn't have any hole for the wires, but I guess this is the least... Help, anyone?
Thanks in advance.

There's an intermediate wiring harness that goes between the main wiring harness, the grips and the switch. I think I've got one for sale if you're interested.
Does that switch have two wires or three? It looks like two in the picture.

I believe I am, Duck. The seller suggested me to ask a auto electrician to make the connections, but I don't know any and I have no idea about what's missing. Put that harness aside for me, please.
And can you get me a scheme of the wiring? Even if it's hand-made, it'll do. Just for me to understand what connects to what, what I have and what I'm lacking. Thanks in advance!

Three wires. Take a look:
Is this important?
I appreciate your help, Duck!

That's the correct switch.
I'll email you a copy of BMW wiring diagram for heated grips.
I'll dig up that wiring harness too and email you a picture of it.

Got it. I'll take it to my friend, the mechanic, to see what he can do. Thanks!

The orange wire in the intermediate wiring harness is special resistive wire that lowers the voltage for the low setting of the heated grips.
