turn signals

[Phrogg]

Ok, so my turn signals don't work at all. I just replaced my battery saturday, and before that they worked great with the old battery. This new battery is from the HD shop and now they don't work whats so ever. At first when I turned them on, they were flashing like they were on crack. Now today they don't come on at all...

Any ideas?

led turnlights?
no resistor?

sorry...stock turn signals

Alright, I just went out to see if I could get any where with the turn signals. Vola, the are magically working now....weird...Although when I turn them on and switch them sometimes. I can hear a little sparkish sound coming from my upper fairing bracket.

Is it possible this new battery blew a fuse? If so where would I locate it to check it?

Any help would be great.

you might want to change the turn signal relay sounds like it's going out on you the dealer should have one if not you might can get it crossrefferenced at napa or autozone parts store you'll need the part # off the old one tho. I don't know what model Buell you have but on the 12R the signal flasher is mounted under the fairing on the right side of the bike.

check wires...there could be a short somewhere

Stupid flasher relay was lose. Atleast, I hope that is all it was. I just pushed it back in and I hope that does the trick. I did do a search for open wires and I found nothing. So hopefully it was just the relay. I called the HD shop and they said they could get me one for 10 bucks. So not to bad. Thanks everyone!

Has anyone ever had a problem with the headlights not working and the instrument panel showing the hi beam lit? It stays on regardless of what lights I'm using, but neither the hi or low beam light.

I had a similar problem. It was just a blown fuse, always check there first.
