    No turn signal or gear indicator

    Sooo, another GSR member and I went on a little ride yesterday and my turn signals quit working (both sides). My hi/low headlight functions (same switch). I checked and swapped the fuse but nothing. Then I noticed my gear indicator wasn't working. I think my side stand switch may not be working either (it's always gamble if it's working or not). My headlight, tail light, brake light are all ok. Any ideas if there is a component I should be focusing on?

    If it is a fuse problem, your brake light and horn will not work, either.

    Please verify.

      Headlights, brake lights, and tail lights all work fine. Just seems to be turn signals, gear indicator, and possibly some gauge indicator lights (since I took the bulbs out of most of them because they were too distracting, I don't know if any of them were affected other than the sidestand). Also horn works and the fuses are good... I swapped them around to be sure.

        Dont let the sidestand switch interfere with your thinking of this.
        THe only thing your sidestand switch is suppose to do is light the light on the instrument panel.


        (I dont have familiarity with the Es to say anymore.)
