I have a 91 Softail. Just put on new rear turn signals and now none of the turn signals work.
Bike started out with: Custom small "spade" type bulbs front and back(5Watt) with a resistor style load module in parallel, and OEM TSM module. Lights worked fine.
Replaced rear TS lights with larger socket style bulbs(1157 style?) Front and rear TS lights would not come on or blink
Replaced the Resistor style load equalizer with a Badlands solid state load equalizer 3. Still no lights or blink.
If I unplug the rear lights and load module, the front TS lights and the indicator lights will turn on and then off as the handlebar switch is is pressed. (I have heard this is normal).
Is it possible that these aftermarket turn signals are loading down the stock turn signal module? I have to think they are similar to stock bulbs.
Is there any way to "bench test" the stock turn signal module?
Any great words of wisdom?
