Hi, my KZ900 flashers blink very slowly   I cleaned the connectors but it's the same. 

Any suggestions !

Thank you in advance :)

What bulbs are you using? Have you checked your grounds with a voltmeter, little current like when a bulb is out causes fast flashing, too much causes slow (contact bends further)

The problem is solved ! It was a bad connector that was fixed by the previous owner ! The white wire had a poor contact..Waiting for a new harness with yhe 4 connectors.

And there you have it :) reduced supply voltage = increased current flow for the same bulb wattage (23w/12v = 2amps ish - 23w/6v = 4amps ish)
