Hey everyone,
I decided it was time to get rid of the brick- sized blinkers on my bike, so I ordered a couple off of 4into1. I bought 4 3-wire turn signals. In the rear, i wired the two hot wires together to the single harness hot wire, and ground to ground. Testing the new rears while I still had the original fronts untouched, the system worked just fine. The front running lights were working and each side would blink fine.
Once I cut off one of the front turn signals, I couldn't get the aftermarket signal's running lights to work. I even tried to rewire the original signal back up, and the running lights were no longer working on those either. I'd like to note that it's incredibly annoying that none of these wires are color coded on my harness.
If this info is any more helpful, now that I have the front right signal cut off, the front left doesn't have running lights, but will blink fine when I flip the blinker switch to that side. All filaments are intact, and the fuses in the handlebar fusebox are all good and pass a continuity test.
What boggles my mind is why the original signal won't work when I test it, even though it worked before I cut it off. Anyone have a clue as to what I might have screwed up?
