I'm guessing the repeated bending just past the molded-on support is the culprit so trying to hook up without that stress is likely to help. pretty hard to do with the gloves. sending to gerbings for repairs is best of course but not so easy/convenient from canada
It makes total sense what you're sayin and my left glove has failed. I'm not sure if it's the liner or the glove. I have to plug the left glove into the right sleeve to rule out the liner. That wire does take a lot of bending when the gloves get pulled on over the jacket cuff. If motorcycle jacket mfrs. would include a little zip opening on the lower arms in an area where the wires from a jacket liner could be pulled out from, and Gerbing re-routed the wire on the glove to emerge from the glove shell on the outside, rather than the inside, you'd have a solution to the wire stressing problem. It would be pretty close to a straight path out the jacket sleeve and straight into the outer glove shell.
