    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    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...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Grounds - always solid colors and the same color thruout

Flasher - yes, you need one. It probably hooks to the upper left corner of your electrical panel and connects with a V shaped plug ( I could be wrong, so check the wiring diagram)

No power to signals - IF you're testing at the turn signal, or its connection no flasher means incomplete circuit
 
Grounds - always solid colors and the same color thruout ...
Sadly, this is not always true. :o

Many times, the ground wire might be white with a black stripe or black with a white stripe.
On other bike brands, I have also seen green wires with varying colored stripes for ground.
Can't even count on a solid black wire, as the 'hot' wire for the left turn signal is a solid black wire. :-k

Thanks Steve!

I checked and I was sooo wrong

Your flasher unit is rectangular box at the lower left of the electrical panel.
