Your question is just a bit brief to fill us in completely.........are you replacing the front turn signals with LED turn signals?

If so......your LED turn signals most likely will be missing the running light portion of the light - they are only turn signals and you won't have the dimmer light (running light) built into the LED.

Don't connect the wires that are the running light portion (12v when you turn on the key), and only connect the ground wire and the flasher wires - and you have to wire them (+/-) correctly as LED's won't work if you get the polarity mixed up.

You will also have to replace your flasher with one that is electronic - as the stock flasher is mechanical and the LED's don't use enough power to make the stock flasher work.

Is that what you were asking?

Some Led's don't need flasher replacement, mine work off the stock flasher. the wires for the running lights should be the same color on both sides of the bike (solid gray?)(not used) the + wires will be brown -green, run to the red on the new lights)the ground wires - should be black /white strip (run to black on the new lights)
