Right turn signal and Horn not working

Please, disconnect said license plate light and inform us of outcome

Beyond pissed, I discovered the shop did not put my O2 Sensor and Power commander V wires back and one of the connectors melted on the exhaust.

Called the shop, emailed pictures as requested and awaiting a response from the service manager.

If you read my other post, you will notice they killed my new battery tender Li-Ion battery too.

Yes, aware of bat issue . . .

New issue will have to wait for an answer from a shop that seems to mess up more that what it fixes . . .

Is bike working "OK" in the meantime?

So I rode the bike to and from my destination (26 miles each way) and no blown fuses! So far so good. Even my PC seems to be still working despite the melted connector, but I don't know how much damage there is to said connector.

Ok... keep riding if possible and keep us in the loop . . . somehow I think you solved the issue with the isolation of the connectors

The shop is picking my bike up tomorrow, The connector that melted, from the O2 optimizer, seems to have fused to the bikes wiring harness connector.

It looks like there is a possibility of them replacing the O2 optimizer ($150 from power commander) and replacing the wiring harness for my bike ($$$). I will update for certain what the repair is. If they end up replacing the whole wiring harness, I will still see if I have the right turn signal and horn activated makes left turn signal lamps come on issue.

They say they need a few days to figure this whole mess out. Obviously no charge to myself and I firmly requested the "mechanic" that F#ked up my bike worked on my bike, no longer does so. He assured me the mechanic will not work on it anymore.

Ok

Any news?

Hey,


Yea, I got a call Saturday saying they found a place that stocks oem connectors and will order, should be here Monday or Tuesday. And should be a day or two after received for a repair.

I don't know how they are doing it exactly, but they are cutting off the melted connectors on both ends and will attach the new connectors. I was expecting a new PC optimizer and repair job on the harness but I guess I am at their mercy.

Hello everyone,
I'm replying here as I have the same exact symptoms but don't think it's due to the O2 sensor or power commander.
The issue started after I changed the oem exhausts for a set of Termi's. I had to open the rear tail as the indicators got a bit too close to the muffler and pinched a cable, which I guess started it all. I opened it, fixed the pinched cable and keep blowing the same fuse, but always after riding the bike a few minutes, as @cintronr. I brought the bike to two Ducati specialists, without success.
I started to disconnect all the different elements connected to that circuit to isolate the issue and it is not occurring when the front break switch and rear brake switch are disconnected. So I guess it bust be a short between those and the rear light brake cable, but I couldn't see anything.
Can the isolation tape wear out within the years?

Many thanks in advance

Anything is possible. I would consider getting an autoelectriction onto the case. Possible pressure on wire in tail tidy when bolts torqued or short at the loom stretched around the steering head.
