Directionals come on but dont oscillate?
« on: October 24, 2021, 02:21:17 PM »
Quick question: went out riding and the directional comes on but doesnt oscillate? At one time the right one would work  but intermittent.

Fuse or bulb issue perhaps. Light on control panel and turn signal do come on

Suggestions? Before letting dealer know-

Thanks,

Dave

What bike?
From the Deep Deep South out in left field.  There are no stupid questions.  There are however stupid people asking questions.  🤣, this includes me.  😉

So it probably doesn't have a flasher relay.

The directions seem to be Canbus from the switch to the dash.

Does that mean, indicators dont flash? 🙃

Do the simple things first.  Check the bulbs.

The bulbs all work, the right side did oscillate, they all come on but dont flash, but the hazards both flash fine....

Did you ride in the rain at all?
You say the hazards work but I don't see a hazard switch on LH cluster
I don't think we have seen a Canbus switch before
The V9s and the MGX-21 have a similar switch
Be sure to get back when the dealer has a look, this is something interesting.

Did you happen to replace the OEM bulbs with LEDs?  If the LEDs don't have the correct internal electrical resistance, they can play havoc with flashers.  Good luck!

Nope all stock, this is the same bike that died on the 2nd day, last week it was in for the shock as the bushing was dry/dirty. I jokingly said to them, things happen in 3's.....

Hazards working, but turn signals coming on but not flashing would lead me to the turn signal switch first which I would clean with contact cleaner. 

Definitely let us know what the technician finds out. 

I doubt they even teach hand signals anymore so ride carefully until you get it fixed.  No last second turns.
