turn signals ....problem...they r week and dosent blink....just stay on...

Hey everyone....today I had a little time to jump into garage and work on bike.....
I was trying to fix the head light....someone wire the bulb with a wire from... fuse and just ground it....wtf...so...was trying to fix that.....then I put front plastic back...and wire the turn signals....and they don't work like they should...first they r 3 conectors from bike...and 2 on plastic with turn signals....EACH SIDE.....one conection on b ike is not used..that's how it was before....and worked...on both mine bikes....so what is happening...
When I turn the turn signal right or left.....on the turn signal switch.....the signals.....light non stop......with weak light....and don't blink........that thinh upfront of bike is making noise......grrrr....its located ot the right side of bike when u stay front to the bike.....the manual didn't tell me much...its more about dissasambling lights then fixing them....is change that thing.....with hand grip switch from mine 750...parts bike... and its same thing......weak...light....no blinking.....
Also.....mine high ben light dosent work.....work on mine 750.....but dosent work on 700 .....I change parts between both bikes......and it basicly same thing.....with turn signals.....any idea anyone .......thx.

 

Thx for coments eh./

 

Sounds like a bad flasher. find the 'thing' with a white/green, grey, and (likely) a solid green wire going to it and replace it with a known good or new one.

 

I agree with dizzy, sounds like a bad flasher. But if that doesn't work you may need trace your wires and see if the circuit is being interrupted (which is not fun)

 

Could also be just a really weak battery. The extra wires in the front of the bike (orange/white and blue/white) are for the STOCK turnsignals. They have additional running lights.

 

Have you checked your blinker fluid?

D

 

Is flesher......located....on the front of the bike at the cluch side...under front fairing....on brocket?....and that bliker fluid ..that's a joke haha right...I will check it tomorrow but if that's what I think it it I already check it with the one from mine parts bike...that was good....to the power I don't have battery on bike...like I sayed...I power the bike from jump starter....12 v starting position...good juice...becouse all the lights on dash r bright...and I can start bike with no problems...thx...I will check manual...again......and will update.

 

Man I'm glad this website exist...after I'm gonna fix mine bike...I will hook u up people with parts from mine other bike.....let's keep those vfr alive!!

 

Turn signals will not work without the battery.

 

they work before i took the fairings off... start jumper... now im in proces fixing electric head light.... but turn signals dont work.. they did before i took fairings off.. and i was using starter/jumper... juice...no battery i when i gonna find time will jump back to garage..... mr donald maybe u r right,,, not saying u r wrong;-)

 

Z .... are you saying you have to jump start it? .... if so, that's your bigger issue! and Donald would be right. A new batt would be the first thing to do.

 

Yes I'm jump starting bike using jump starter.......no battery in the bike ...when I jump the bike.....the cables from jumper r steel hooked to bike.....while the bike is running.....if I will unhooked them.....the bike will just die...anyway.......

Will try couple tips from u buddies....don't want to comfuse anyone...more...when I will check them will do update thx

Ok. Problem half solved....when bike runs with the jumper on....the turn signals work.....normal bright light...but they blink in different speed.....when the bike gets got and the fan kick in....they work fine....probably just need new battery....and they should work fine. Thx everyone

 

Maybe this week I will bay battery....and will try to solve last three prob lems.using everyones advice......thx
