[Nighthawk Lovers] turn signals not working

Sun, 13 Jun 2010 06:24:11 -0700

Here's one I'm fed up with working on. I have two bikes that have nonworking right turn signals. They both do the same thing. So I'll describe one. (The other is a kz1000). It's a 1982/83 Suzuki GS1100L. I replaced the turn signals with new after markets. The front originls were running lights with three wires, the replacements are just two wire. So with the signals hooked up - and I'm sure I have the wires connected correctly on the front ones, leaving the running lights wires open (unconnected). The turn signals stay on when activated. The left ones turn on when I push the switch to the left, and same for the right. I have changed the flasher unit and the relay unit - no difference. A new battery and correct charging voltage makes no difference. It seems to me there's not enough voltage getting to the flasher unit to make it work. One wire out of the flasher unit reads over 12 v, the other - way under (it's a three prong unit). I have checked all grounds, added one, no difference. Any suggestions? Graham
