today it rained in on my bike under the garage at work and i noticed my left signal indicator was staying solid when activated 90% of the time.
Went to the store and picked up some shrink wrap to re-wire it, but as most of you are probably already aiming at the reply button, yea, im trying to check the fuse. Cant really find it though, i know its under the tail behind the battery, but its a cluster fuck back there. Wouldnt both the signals be on the same fuse though? i dont get why one side would work fine but the other only the rear light wont work. for reference, when i activate the left signals the front flush mount goes on and stays on just like the indicator. |

GOOD NEWS EVERYBODY

Yep the bulb blowned out. Seems pretty odd, it wasnt that old at all. just a simple 4 watt bulb in a sealed signal. Used some liquid gasket to seal the signal back up and it works good as new.
It was weird, it didnt seem like a fuse and the wiring was good, that shoulda been like the first thing i checked but u just dont expect those types to things to go bad. 5$ fix from autozone. |
