Got a short somewhere...any ideas? (Read 45 times)

Not a clue, but my first idea would be to trace the wires as far back looking for abnormalities like pinched or melted wires then try to make something of the wiring diagrams in your clymers book. That looks ok then im sure there is some sort of relay for signals.

This is all from the top of my head my best educated guess without being with my bike and manual.

You can always remove them and use hand sigs! Wink

Front signals.
I've not replaced the bulb.
I'll try taking out the bulb and leaving the circuit to it open, and see if the indicator still glows.
Not cleaned the sockets, I'll give it a shot.
