Left turn signal doesn't seem to work when I apply the switch. When I apply the 4 way flasher all lights work. I assume that it means that I have a switch problem at the left handlebar control.

Connection on the Handlebar-Switch or the Wireing Harness Connector might be bad, check and clean both and this will be gone.

Squeeze is right but to answer your question yes, if the 4 ways work then the problem is most likely in the switch. The connector would be the best place to start...

Squeeze & Bongobobny,
Thanks for the reply. Indeed, left suddenly started working again. Guess that I need to check and clean those two connectors.

Thanks.

Where do I locate the wiring harness connector?

Its fixed. I went out to the local dealer, described the problem to the mechanic there and watch as he respectfully but oh so obviously glanced at me with his - OMG, doesn't he know anything - look.

The answer: WD-40

Now I am carrying some in the side bag right along side the duc tape.
