Widder Lectric Vest Problem

[frosti]

My Widder Lectric Vest has been excellent over the last few years but has ceased working.
Continuity in Vest seems ok.
The Cable Hook-up seems to be the problem.

It is the one with the BMW Temp Controller.
Since Widder closed their business, I do not believe you can buy a replacement Controller anymore.

Anyone had a similar problem, or fitted a different hook-up to a Widder Vest ?
The Widder is 2 pin and most newer vests seem to be co-axial.
Widder used to do a co-axial to 2-pin connector, but not any more it looks like.

Any help appreciated.

I think these boys are now the only folk who distribute Widder stuff so it might be worth contacting them:

My Widder has just got the on/off switch with no temp controller and fortunately still going strong. Would be good to know if you can source spares though so let us know how you get on,

Any 'Hook up' / temperature controller will do.

Chop the plugs off and replace.

Thanks, I already e-mailed them but no reply.
They do not seem to deliver outside the US either.
