next to your fuse box there is a flasher relay replace that. It happened to me I let them spark and it burt the relay. You'll have to order it from your dealer for like 20 or 25 dollars

DONT BUY IT FROM THE DEALER!  :icon_mrgreen:

You can buy any automotive one from Walmart or Pepboys for $4  :cheers:

It wont mount all fancy like stock but I just zip tied mine in place.. you cant see it anyway  :icon_mrgreen:

what year is the bike. I know first hand that the ones from walmart and napa will NOT work on the 06 its a special wattage or something cuz thats what I thought but you have to use the oem one and its just as cheap for the new as it is used
