Title: Another blinker problem! sorry guys
Post by: Big Rhino on July 23, 2012, 06:34:45 PM
so i just put a new relay in my bike because the last one was broken and now when the rpm gets higher the blinking gets quicker and quicker. What is the problem!?!? so frustrated!

Check your voltage regulator output. It shouldn't vary more than a couple of volts.

standard blinkers or aftermarket LED?... have heard a lot of LED units require an additional resistor to be placed in the circuit...

Get out your volt meter and measure the voltage at the battery with bike off, idling and revving.

maybe you need a resistor? it could be the voltage regulator, but i would do what adidas said before anything else.
