Anyone got a spare front warmer?

[OreoGaborio]

After a million years of reliable service my woody burnt out last race weekend. Haven't had a chance to try repairing it yet. After speaking with Eric I'm pretty sure it's just a fuse n should be an easy fix, but just in case, does anyone have a spare I can borrow this weekend?

[Trouble]

Yup. It's a DMS digital that you can use for the rest of the year if you want to. The rear warmer is cooked so I've been keeping it as a spare. I'll be up there Friday morning.

My primary set and my spare set just left for the track with Gunner and his mom. If the shit hits the fan call me (or find Dayon) and he'll point you in the right direction.

I got set of MotoD you can borrow for the rest of the season brother. Unfortunately, I'm done for the year due to injuries.

In case anyone runs into a similar issue with their Woodcraft warmers: There is an inline fuse located right by the velcro straps that you put around the wheel when you're putting them on. This fuse can blow, causing the tire warmer to die, BUT the light can still go on.

Luckily, Eric told me straight up that after talking with some electrical gurus that the fuse they put into the design was put it in there as an extra safeguard and wasn't actually necessary. There is no risk of overheating or shorting out without it.

Steps to repair:
1 - Get to the fuse. I just used a sharp knife and cut right along the fuse itself. If I had more time & wanted to do it professionally I would have cut all the stitching necessary to get to the fuse without cutting the fabric... then sewn it back together. But that'd be a fair amount of work as there are a few lines of sitching between the fuse and the "outside world".
2 - cut out the fuse.
3 - throw fuse in trash.
4 - splice the wires together & patch it back up.
