My crazy blinker problems

Hello again everyone. So I replaced the set of blinkers the previous owner put on the bike (LEDs). I figured that was why none of the blinkers actually blinked and stayed solid permanently when activated. But that isn't the case, with the old fashioned blinkers installed the blinkers still stay solid when activated and the left front doesn't even work (same with the LEDs) unless I turn on the headlight (used to not work at all!:( ), then the front left stays on permanently. What really cracks me up is when I turn on the hazard switch they blink :laugh: !! except the front left of course. So summary is front left only comes on solid with headlight all the rest don't blink just come on solid when used. :unsure:

Yep, there should be two of them. One for left/right and one for hazards. If you swap them your blinkers will work but hazards won't if it's the flasher unit.

Electrics should be under the seat or behind the side covers. I would recommend finding a service manual for your bike...best investment you'll make.
