Indicators ???

Can someone check if the indicators blink whitout the bike running ??

Mine blink once then they stay on.

 

I know the headlight won't work without the bike running but what about the indicators ??

Does your battery have good charge? Mine don't flash if the battery is low.

Or mybe your flasher unit has gone bad?

Got a new battery yesterday but the bike is in the basement so I can't start it for now.

That's why I was wondering if your indicators flashed without the bike running.

 

The flasher relay is the first thing I changed.

Are your indicators standard? I think some aftermarket ones need some kind of modification to work, someone else on here might know more about that though..

You could try have a play with the connectors while they are switched on if you haven't already, when i was fitting arrow indicators on mine they acted a bit random at first, like 3 flashing at the same time etc.. had to make sure they were all in there good and tight. Once that was sorted they worked fine, with the engine off that is

Yes indicators do blink when the bike is off. It's only the headlight that needs the bike running. Makes it much easier working inside checking wires

GOT IT !!!

 

In the front I was using indicators from another bike for the inspection (LED are not legal here and won't pass inspection), anyways those indicators had 10w lightbulbs, after switching to 21 watters i'm in business.

 

Thanks for the help guys.
