Turn indicators do not work, Solved: Faulty fuse

[Niel68]

I Need help. I installed on the back a couple of led turn light ( with sequencer). They worked, but today I tried to install also the front ones. All stopped working. I checked fuse, it is ok and I have 12V there. Then I checked relay, it has 10kohm resistance, but if I check voltage when I activate turn or the emergency lights, I have no voltage there. I do not know what to check now. I also deconnected back turn light and installed only front Yamaha standard, but nothing happens. Any agggestion?

LED indicators need a different flasher relay than standard or in line resistors. One LED rear and  one standard front is  generally enough  resistance for  flasher relay to work. As a test  plug back a standard and I am sure that it will work.

Yep. I had the same scenario on my Italian Princess. Rear led turn signals played just fine with the OEM incandescent front, but others have had to change out their flasher if they replaced the front also.

I already connected back standard light in front, and do not work. Also disconnecting led back and leaving only standard in front doesn't work. Maybe the relay is broke now? I will try to put standard also on the back, but I will have time to work on only tomorrow late.

Yes, it could be the relay. You don't give all trouble shooting information. Good  luck.

I would also just swap out the  fuse! I had an intermittent problem with my 92 BMW R100GS, the  fuse was faulty. When checked with a meter for continuity it was fine. But when it warmed up it gave  problems. So now regardless if I have an electric problem I swap out the fuse even if it checks out.

You might want to get something like this to work with your LED turn signals.

You got it. I used a new fuse and now it's working. Many thanks
