Thanks, Froggy, what ever "HTFU sticking your tongue out" means! I blew the "AUX" fuse! The grips must be on that circuit. I remember how I did it too! Had a nail in my tire, which I plugged at Wal-Mart. Then tried to inflate it with this cheap portable 12v air pump I bought. Must have blown the fuse then! I always carry plugs, but need to find a small air pump to carry with me.
