I think the problem is that you wired your taillight through your caps lock key.

Did you use the factory bullet connectors? Check to make sure they didn't wiggle loose or corode.

haha.

Ok, so you admit to having a crappy integrated tail light - why wouldn't this be the problem. Have you tried disconnecting it from the bike and plugging the stock blinkers back in? Or putting a volt meter or tell-tale light on it?

The flasher relay for your bike is electronics and build into the dash circuit board - so it's not something you're going to replace easily or cheaply.

And odds say it's due to an issue with your cheap light. I have yet to hear of the flasher relay on a bike like that just kicking off.
