    Repair a tire warmer?

    I have the standard chicken hawk racing front tire warmer (S&C branded). Not sure what year it is as I bought it used.

    It has 3 heat settings and a light indicating that it is receiving electricity. The light illuminates but the heating element is not warming up anymore. I tried all 3 heat modes.

    Can I get replacement parts and how do I diagnose what needs to be replaced? Thanks

    ship it to Chicken Hawk and they can either repair it or sell you a replacement.

    Thanks Jim. Have you sent anything to them? Any ideas on price and turn around time? They don't mention either on their site.

    I though the point of the forum is that other people do the work for me


    So I called Chicken Hawk. They said most repairs are between $30-60 and if it will cost >$100 they will give you credit toward a new pair
