Re: Factory heated grips
Bikeopath said:
Inmates, I have a 2012 and want to install factory heated grips. The Yamaha website shows two different grips, wildly different prices, when I ask for Tenere accessories.
Does anyone have the part numbers for the correct unit? Soliciting experience with them as well. Would like to utilize stock harness.
The 23P-H29A0-V0-00 is for the 2012-13 kit.
There is not much advantage in using the OEM kit, as the stock "harness" on the bike side just provides power, ground and maybe a relay trigger wire. Everything else comes with the heated grip kit. The OEM Gen I heated grips kit comes with a large, bulky knob type switch that mounts on a plate in front of the bars. It's ugly & expensive, but it works.
You can still use the bike's wiring harness for heated grips with any aftermarket kit too. Eastern Beaver sells pins and plugs if you want to use the stock wiring harness and plug aftermarket grips and controller into it.
Eastern Beaver Link EB uses the bike's aux lights plug for their relay kits, but does have the plugs for the heated grips harness too. Look carefully at the Gen I kit to see how it's harness plugs into the bike and the grip controller. Examine your universal grip kit before ordering parts. The forum should have a thread about 2012 bikes and what each pin is, 12v power, ground, switched 12v, etc. I have the Aux lights pins written down, but could'n find my notes for the heated grip plug on the Gen I.
This is the OEM kit for Gen I bikes that will be plug and play -
Ebay Link 23P-H29A0-V0-00
Here is a nice one for $95 -
Partshark Link I notice that Yamaha is offering this kit instead of the old Gen I kits now, but I did find the old kit on eBay still.
The OEM part Number for the 2014-on kits is
2BS-H29A0-V0-00. Not that Gen I parts are typically starting with 23P and Gen II parts are starting with 2BS. 23P parts listed under Gen II bikes are items that did not change from Gen I to Gen II. 2BS parts are parts that changed for the Gen II.
