turn signal troubles
Turn signals have surrendered the ghost.
Anyone know where the flasher/relay hides
out so I can bypass and see it's the culprit?
Looked under seat and around dash area,
no joy.
TIA

turn signal troubles
Wal-mart had a flasher relay that fit the plug perfect
Still going after a few days. Price $1.98! It's round
instead of rectangular, used a tie-wrap to zip it
to the oem mount spot.Wallyworld also had nylon
backpacks on sale $5 so now I got a set of poor-mans
tank panniers.

turn signal troubles
Greetings,
I am having trouble with an aftermarket turn signal setup. In back I
have a LED stop/running/turn signal combo and up front some
small "marker" lights that you'd normally put on a sportbike.
Everything works when you hit the switch either way but there's no
blinking, they just stay on. I replaced the relay thinking that was
it. Still nothing. Is this a grounding problem somewhere? I really
want to keep this setup because there's nothing to break-off on a
fall like the stock ones.

I got my digital flasher from Pepboys - will flash at very low amp rates. I
figure the same is available from Autozone, Krager, etc...
Cost a bit more, but will trigger LED lamps.
FWIW, DOT compliance is based on the bulb/housing, not the flasher - this
may be relevant in legal action if the attorney knows his business enough to
check.
My client base is attorney-based. I decided to stick w/ DOT turn signals
because of what I learned from them in past liability matters in the courts
of Nevada.

__________________________________________________________________- True. I read that somewhere that if you run non-DOT turnsignals and someone hits you (behind-front) and you make it a point that your turnsignals were on, the kind of attorney Mike speaks of checks and there is no DOT endorsement on there, you're in trouble.

The legal issue also includes this bit of info - The smart attorneys look
for factory placement and illumination equivalence when substitute
signals/lamps are used.
In case you are wondering, I use stock turn signals, with factory-spec light
bulbs.
I was going to do the mods last year for LED / close housing mounts, but
case law proved it to be an unwise option.

Try an electronic turn signal flasher. My LED lights wouldn't flash until I
installed one.

Larry, Its the folks at ACNMW.COM, the clamp you are referring to can be seen at http://www.acnmw.com/acnprod/acnprod.htm, These are good guys. I've ridden with several times at the Reno Dust Devils DS ride. Last year they donated a couple hundred dollars of product to the Dust Devil's raffle, all proceeds going to the Blue Ribbon Coalition. You make a good product and support our sport and you get my business.
