front indicators have no running lights

[Black wing]

so i just put in a new blinker relay from dingy and it worked great but i think my 4 way flasher switch is the fault, i no longer have running lights on the front blinkers and i can only get the right hand side to start flashing if i indicate left when i start the bike like the relay is getting stuck, also it will not go into 4 way mode. any ideas or is it just the switch bad?

I would start with cleaning the switch, it can get dirty and foul up, but I can't see that has anything to do with the running light part, that is a different circuit. Check your bulbs to make sure they are in right and are clean. You may also have a ground problem, so while you have it apart run a wire from the ground, outside portion of the socket, to the battery and see if it then works.

ok so i have the running lights going, turns out the running lights go through the tail light fuse and it was blown, but im still having problems with the right blinker. if i turn on the ignition it will not go right first i have to turn left first or activate the 4 ways. and if i turn on the ignition and immediately turn right but do not cancel it and then turn on the 4 ways once i turn off the 4 ways it will be indicating right. once i have it turn right once it will indicate reliably untill the ignition is reset
