    New Turn Signals, No Blinky....

    I ordered a new set of turn signal lights for my '79 GS750E. They're 2-wire single-filament signals 12V/10W bulbs.... not LED. I hooked one to the front right side to test it, and it only lights up....no flashing. The stock signal flashes fine with the same wiring configuration.

    Any guesses what's going on?

    The wattage is too low for flasher to work. Get a LED flasher

      And here I was thinking it would be the LEDs that would be low voltage. Thanks for the tip...
