Turn signals not working By dozer187 (Read 2,804 times)

So i have a powermax 150 and my turn signals stopped working this morning , still have tail and brake light and headlight and running light, horn works too. Bike starts with starter no problem

[crwford]

sounds like a signal flasher went bad or came unpluged

[dozer187]

Will a universal work for stock turn signals or do i need oem part

Time to get out the meter and find out for sure what the problem is. Generic diagrams in library. Bad connections are more common than failure. meter can tell you if voltage is getting to the flasher.

People keep wanting to replace parts instead of finding the problem. If we learn to trouble shoot when a really bad problem comes along it won't be a problem.

Its getting power, 12v with signal switch in either position, showed like 14 in neutral (off) position, checked every connection on the harness all good, thats y i asked about the part. To see if a universal would work

[crwford]

I have had good luck with the universal if that was the Question.

With the stock turn signals?

If the plug for the original is the same I don't see why it won't work

[dozer187]

Ok so i hooked up the universal, and the blinkers just stay solid on

[crwford]

The ones I got was flasher with plug and 3 wires and then you find out what wire work were that is the only one's that I buy nothing else.

Are all the bulbs good?,,,even so there's not enough load to make the flasher cycle,,,I use digitalis myself,,couple bucks more but they cycle whatever the load is
