Turn signal problems.

[golem]

I noticed this morning that my turn signal indicator is not working. The turn signals themselves work fine but no dice with the indicator... Does anyone has any idea on how to proceed to start troubleshooting this issue? Thank you

You mean the bulb doesn't light up? I would check the bulb...

[golem]

Well , the bulb would light up erratically then gave finally gave up at some point.
if it isn't the bulb, what is next. Also, thank you jonathan btw, you always there with answers, we appreciate it ( I speak in the name of this community and other gz250 users).

Ok for some reason , my indicator worked again for some time then stopped working once again. Wiring fault somewhere?

[alantf]

most likely.

Any advice on how to tackle it for a newb or should I take it straight to a professional?

[jonathan180iq]

Or the base of the light bulb has weathered and has corrosion on it that is not allowing proper contact.

Check that before you start getting into the wiring.

We all do it, man. I took a hiatus from this board for more than a year at one point. We have a very strong core of long-term members who are always there to help. I just go through periods where I get obsessed with making sure everyone has some type of response - and depending on when I log-in, I am either first to a conversation or last... or I forget that I'm in conversation with anyone at all. haha

Either way, thank you.

Cool. For info, How do I remove the turn signal indicator green thingy to access the bulb? the manual pdf is not really explicit about that.

Well, I'm going to summon water warrior for good advice : water warrior ! water warrior ! water warrior !
