did I blow a fuse?

[mach1]

So I went ahead and put my new turn signals on today and when I got them all wired up I tested them and when i turn the left blinker on they both light up but dont blink, So I tested the right and the same. The problme is they dont blinkM I turn the blinker on and they Both light up. I double checked the wiring and it good. So did I blow a fuse If so where are they?

Are they LED blinkers? Cuz if they are... well.. just go read the FAQ section

Either they're LEDs and you just don't research things before you do them, or they're dual filaments, so they can be running lights and turn signals, and you wired the wrong leads. Either way... search, n00b!

they are leds and are single. They are the same brand as my flush mounts and they are both led's I wired them the same.

If they are lighting there must be voltage present, if there is voltage present the fuse cant have blown......or have I missed something?

[mach1]

that is what I said to myself. I did read the leds faqs befor eI added my flushmouns and they worked fine the only problem is that when I pulled the brake lever they blinked faster. eh oh well I figure it out some how.

If you read the FAQ, then you know that you have to install resistors, or the LEDs are going to flash so fast that they appear to be steady. Going to one set of LEDs with stock rears probably kept enough resistance in the system to keep the flashing slower. When you went LED all around, you significantly lowered the resistance in the system, that's why they blink so fast. Add a resistor, or go with non LED turn signals.

n00b.

Depends on the Flasher.Sometimes if the LED's Draw enough Current it will Enguage the Flasher.Sometimes you have to Install a Resitor to "Trick" it.

I dont have leds in the rear I have them intergrated in the brake light and Im guessing since the flush mount leds hade more leds it was enough to work but these are tiny and have less leds. okay Im just going to get some other ones.

I'm not trying to be a smart-arse , but since you already have these and they're presumably still installed , why not just splice in the resistors ?

GS500 only has one fuse, between the battery and everything electrical other than the starter.  20 amp, I think.
