I recently bought an '87 vfr 700 F2. I have been having trouble with the turn signals the last couple of weeks. The problem is that sometimes the turn signals do not turn on. I will be riding down the road changing lanes and the turn signals will be working great, then next thing I know i try the signals and they won't turn on. after a while they just come back and i can use them again until the stop working again. I thought that maybe it was a fuse or something, because the first time it happened i checked the fuses and pushed them in a little bit, i don't really think they were loose, but they moved a bit. For the next few days it worked great without a single problem, but this morning it happened again. I checked the fuses again and this time wiggling them didn't help anything. Has anyone else had this problem? If so, What was the cause and how can i fix it? If not, any ideas about what could be happening and what i can do to fix it?
I had a similar problem with my 86 vfr700f2, take the switch apart on the handle bar and clean all the contacts. I work on electronics and some skilss in this area would be helpful. those switches are 20 yrs old and they could be failing you may need to replace the switch. it is what I ended up doing and it still works today. Although I don't ride the 700 much at all since I got the new 06 vfr
