Re: Another /6 Electrical Question

First place I would look is the ignition switch. It is not hard to get a wire on the wrong pin.

Re: Another /6 Electrical Question

Take a look at the factory relay, it may have the internal diagram printed or scribed on the side. St.

Re: Turn signal intermittent

I am posting late in the thread sorry. Over the years of riding I have had similar failures. Sometimes the issue is a simple fix of just cleaning plugs and contacts.

Re: Another /6 Electrical Question
