Electrical woes - 1980 GS1000G

I have noticed a strange noise emanating from the signal flasher unit. It clicks on right turns, as it should, but on left turns, it makes strange buzzing noises.

Loosen the relevant turn signal arm, and reposition the ground wire with the ring terminal.

Thanks for all the helpful tips. I virtually re-soldered, shrink wrapped every suspect wire from one end to the other. I was messing with the left rear turn signal, which was not totally tight in it's place. I decided to take it apart, and VOILA, the wires were less than ideal. Some heat shrink, and re-soldering and now it all seems to be working the way it should. I just have to clean up the wiring routing in the morning. Had to quit, the Mosquitos were attacking in Squadrons. Test ride soon as possible. Thanks again.

Glad you're finally getting this headache sorted. I suppose this is why they call them 'electrical gremlins'
