  • signal lights

    right noiw my front signal lights stay on but dont blink and my back signals dont do a thing. any suggestion. would a bad canceling unit cause this

    could be cancelling unit, but I would guess wiring problems somewhere. mine were doing the same thing until i just took everything apart and put it back together again. then worked fine.

      I had the same similer problems. Everyone on the list recomended pulling everything apart, and cleaning. Did that and they've been working perfectly every since.

        Hey there Kevin,

        It's most likely the grounding wires for the rear lights, they are grounded by a ring nutted onto the back light shaft under the fender. They can get corroded and eventually don't make good contact or ground. Check your rear bulbs, and the wires, clean the contacts and once the rears are working, the the circuit gets completed and they should blink again.
