Hi All,
Is there an easy fix to my '80 KZ750 E1's turn signal indicators on the instrument cluster that indicate the opposite way the actual signals are flashing? When I push the lever to indicate a right turn the right flashers indicate correctly but the istrumnet cluster indicators show a left turn and vis versa.Any ideas?

Thanks,
Josh

Someone must have swapped the bulb sockets around in the console. Just open the console and swap the socket and bulb around.:)

Is the "console" the handlebar housing or is it in the instument cluster? Thanks, Josh

The console he refers to is likely the one where the idiot lights are located. There is a small wiring harness going to the stuff in your... let's call it your dash board... he thinks the bulb holders were removed and reversed. I am not sure if that is possible or not as I am not all that familiar with your bike but you could take the bulb holders out, if they can be removed and swap them (in the dash board).

The same thing is happening to mine now. I had mine all apart this winter and I think I must have swapped the bulbs by mistake when I put it together. :( I'm going to leave mine for the time being and probably fix this coming winter.
