    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

Is there any blinker relay compatible for my 1981 GS1100?

My blinker relay is not working properly to the left turns, but it does work for right ones (sorry, LOL). Is there any compatibility on the market? Cheers!
 
indeed, when I command it to blink, head light gets little weaker at the same pace of the blinker. But this problem was not detected before because it was impossible to stare the headlight while riding the bike different from now, which is on the stand.
 
Not working "properly" ??? not coming on?, coming on not blinking?, comes on but blinks too fast?... Have you changed a bulb on the left side? a bulb that draws more or less current than is designed for can cause not working properly.

Hi R, thanks for answering my call. LH side blinks erratically, slow and sometimes, keep the light on. XRR, wrote above it can be some wiring/switch problem. Actually I opened the relay and it's a real rustic and sounds reliable, I 'washed' it with contact cleaner and reinstall it back. During amy last night sleep, I woke up with a direction to disassemble the headlight and search for the LH controls switch for the 'ground' cable, probably my LH command switch has a corroded ground cable, it interfere on blinkers and headlight, right?
 
Not sure but like Xrr, if you got the same current going in & being drawn out of the relay (flasher) it won't know if flashing RH or LH signals... Think your blinkers are grounded through the mounting stud for each blinker. Good luck.
