Title: HELP! Strange Turn Signal Problem
Post by: rainbballer17 on March 01, 2015, 02:38:40 PM
All of my turn signals work. I have checked them all and they are good. When I indicate to turn left, the dash light turns on. When I indicate to turn right, the indicator light doesn't flash. The blinkers are all working, the indicator light just doesn't blink. Please help! It's not super important but it is annoying and I want it to work.

Pull the bulbs and clean the contact points where the bulb contacts the socket.

Doesn't the led also freeze one side? .. his sides are working, but only left side makes dash light up?

what is the diode mod? On gstwins wiki, it said that I had to get the polarized led indicator. No idea what it was and just ordered one. It worked on both for a while then just randomly stopped

Leds do get a bit twitchy with a lot if vibration. .. and these bikes can be a bit buzzy! ... you might just have a partly fritzed led?
