    headlight and flasher

    Hey all. Does the headlight operation have anything to do with the three prong flasher on the right side of the bike?

      In a word....No...???
      Of course it does tie into the same electrical system, but, NO.

      Do you have a manual and electrical schematics?
      Get some.

          If you mean this flasher unit (or something similar...) then the answer is: No.



          Finding out what components do and where they are on the bike is a great/ongoing strategy we all use. Like jjwaller, I recommend getting a repair manual with electrical schematics.

          Ya can't tell the players without the program....
