Since I crashed last July I have had an intermittent issue with the turn signal fuse blowing when right front signal is activated. If I unplug the right front signal wires then the right rear works just fine. Sometimes, they both work for a while and then when I activate the right signals the fuse will blow. Again, it works fine with just the right rear hooked up.
I have changed out the right front signal three times. They are mini signals from Cycle Gear. They all worked but I thought maybe there was an issue.
This past week I stripped the outer insulation off the harness containing the right front signal wiring (and a bunch of other things). No bare wires. No loose wires. No crimped wires. I made sure the harnesses were not getting crimped when the bars were turned full lock right and left. Both right signals worked fine when tested. I again moved bars from lock to lock. Signals worked fine.
Went for a ride today and the first time I activated right signals the fuse blew. [bang] So, I disconnected the right front signal wires and carried on. Right rear worked fine all day.
Anyone have any suggestions on what to look at next?
Thanks!
I would still suspect a wire to the front right intermittently grounding.
Try running a temporary supply wire to the front right for a while and see if it obviates the problem.
Thanks! Not a bad idea.
