    Hi Guys

    I feel like I have tried to solve my indicator problems to no avail, I tested the flasher unit, results as follows brown 12volts, green and yellow ok, but the brown and white I am not getting voltage, In the book this points to flasher not working but I have tried a new one. I have checked the wiring from the handle bar switch and everything checks out, took the tank off and checked the self cancel leads and they check out too.

    At the moment I have 23w bulbs with electronic flasher, everything was working fine with this set up.

    I have also checked and swopped for 21w flasher with 21w bulbs, no difference.

    I am very stuck !!!

    Have you replaced the fuse block yet? The Signal circuit fuse may be the issue. I know you are getting the voltage through the handlebars but I've had correct voltages in the right places before and only changing the fuse block fixed the problem (mine was the headlight).

    Do you have original single filament bulbs (1156) or did the PO replace the assemblies with 1157 dual filament bulbs?

    That was my problem on the right side.

    Ok so an update

    changed the fuse box last year to new blade style ones, and changed connectors everywhere

    I have after market bulbs which are 12v 23w, I tried my mates flasher not sure what wattage it is but all of a sudden 3 out of a possible 4 came on at once and started flashing.

    I have ordered a 12v 23 w flasher to see if this makes a difference

    I thought about buying a seperate indicator system and wiring it in.
    Thanks
    Daz
