Timbo Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 My 99 Bandit over the last couple of days started to play up with regards to the indicators it would work 1 second then not.I am sure all the bulbs are working however both left and right are the same.I have wiggled the wires makes no difference , not checked the switch gear could that be a possibility ?

cruz Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 I would start with the earthing, the salt ect plays havoc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

megawatt Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Possibly, you need to check and clean all the connections! LED indicators flash too FAST with a standard flasher unit. I replaced the Honda one for a LED one off eBay for £13. Flashes ok with LEDs and Tungsten indicators. Spray some WD40 in your switchgear and exercise it?

Colin the Bear Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Don't put wd40 in switch gear. Use switch cleaner. Check the bulb holders for rust and poor connections. If the indicators are a replacement follow the wiring and look for the joint where it was patched in. Some botchers just twist the wires and wrap with tape and the weather gets in.

Tango Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Yeah...the flasher relay could be a bit iffy if it's affecting both sides. Check all earthing wiring/connections too..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
