Turn signals

[JimmyB]

Just bought a used Buell Blast 2001 with 800 miles on it. Bike sat in a garage for a long time and has a little rust around the pipes and bottom. anyone know how to restore it? Also, all lights work except turn signals. Where would I look to find the problem? I don't think it could be the fuses because all the rest of the lights are working just fine. Any help is appreciated

Change the bulbs in the blinkers and see if that works. You need to sand down the rust and repaint it so it won't rust up again.

I will certainly try that 1st. What's the chance of all 4 bulbs being out.

Replace flasher,check fuses as well.

Yes the chances of all 4 being bad is the flasher for sure.

I just looked, seems the 2001 Blast did not have flashers

Of course it does - go to the parts manual and look - geez - they are free throughout the net and you can't take the time to look?;0) My bikes are 2000 and 2001 - the 2001 has the major mods - I treated the 2000 much more gently as a loaner and in-city bike, the 2001 I own is definitely in the middle upper area of maxed out - engine wise and still keep up some semblance of reliability - heck - I already blew it up once in its 2nd year -
Trust me when I say this - it has a flasher - lol

Do you mean a four way flasher or flashing the high beams?

 

[ezblast]

You want part # Y0621.MA - go to my group and check the files section - you will find the diagrams there.

im having the same problem with a 2003 blast. i put a new relay on and nothing, checked all my fuses, nothing. all my bulbs are brand new, nothing.

[ezblast]

Relay is not a Flasher - replace flasher.

Stock or automotive? Did you check your fuse?
