Guest allenluikart Posted July 3, 2007 Share #1 Posted July 3, 2007 Hello, I am trying to track down the lack of turn signal on my 1991 I have checked all fuses and connections-the bike is almost skinless should I consider replacing the signal relay?-its $130.00!! The front "turn signal" lights are fine in a runny light condition-but no turn signal. The back siganl lights give me nothing-all bulbs are new I worked hard all winter to get the bike painted and detailed-just bought it last year BUT I can't ride in Cleveland Ohio without turnsignals Your input would be greatly appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fixit3546 Posted July 3, 2007 Share #5 Posted July 3, 2007 The switch should be mounted close to the Ign. switch on the inside edge of the right faring dash panel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muffinman Posted July 3, 2007 Share #6 Posted July 3, 2007 Allen if the emergency flashers work you will know that the wiring is ok to the lights if they work start with the turn signal switch before you spend big money on the flasher unit. the emergency flasher switch is on the right side black top panel up near the instrument panel.

Gearhead Posted July 3, 2007 Share #7 Posted July 3, 2007 You don't want to put in a $130 part w/o knowing it's bad. Trace the circuit on the wiring diagram, probe with a meter and sewing pin (to push thru the insulation) and find out where you lose power. In fact, the manual has a troubleshooting procedure which might help. I didn't look, but it might also have a procedure for checking out the flasher. Since it's all 4 lites, it could be the flasher, but also could be anywhere in the wiring up to the flasher. Jeremy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest allenluikart Posted July 4, 2007 Share #8 Posted July 4, 2007 Gentlemen-what a great sight-put my emergentcy flashers on and all bulbs-front and back lit like a christmas tree!!!!!!!!!!!! Can't tell you how pleased I am Now I need to look at my signal switch-do I take apart the hadlebar switch or is this a modulal up front (relay) Please let me know -I can feel the wind in my face already At least I can start putting together the back end!
