how to, hook up your turn signal lights again...
...because you forgot to remember which wires went where.
Now this is complicated by the fact that I had to buy a second hand set of turn signals because my original left front turn light was cracked in a wreck. Now I have the new set, and everything works. Except, when I turn the bike on, the left signal light comes on and stays on. Rear blinkers work as they're supposed to, and front right blinker works OK. Colors on wires coming from left turn signal, BLACK/WHITE, BLACK, GRAY. Left over wires in the headlight housing, BROWN, GREEN, BLACK/WHITE. Does anyone know how this is supposed to mate up? Other than some general maintenance, this is the last of my repairs. ![]() jm Login or Register to Remove Ads |

I have no idea, but i bet if you download the service manual that we have on here, there is a wiring diagram somewhere in it. :2tup:

Actually, I consulted the service manual before I hit the forum. I may have missed it, but I didn't see it in there.
Anyway, I figured it out by trial and error finally. I managed to blow only one fuse in the process. :/ Login or Register to Remove Ads |

The green wire could be the power for the right turn signal... One tip, the two 'power' wires for the two turn signal lights are connected to either end of the turn signal indicator lamp.

IF you don't have one now, Get a test light at Any place that sells them. They are fool proof and you always know if it is working. Just test your battery, if it lights up you are golden. I have had and used test lights for over 40 years with not one failure. Cheap, easy and no real moving parts. The original meter I suppose.
