My mate has just turned upto my house with what looks like a Christmas tree.

All his Indicators are on instead of his Lights, and when he indicates they go diagonally (Left + Right/ Right + Left) With the taco flashing too.

He said that he was riding along and the lights went out, then his indicators just came on and won't go off.

Any idea's of where to start looking, because i've never seen or heard of this happening before.

I LOL'd.

not tripped a relay or something somewhere has he?

This is the guy that can't go round corners am I right?

Turn it off and on again Thumbs Up

If that doesn't work, kill it with fire.

HTH

^ the only reason I say relay is that a similar thing happened in my ex's car after going through puddles cos the silly bint thought it was funny watching the splashes.

Sorted the relay and it was all back to normal.

Dunno if that's of any relevance or not tho.

Just pull the plug out - that usually puts the lights out on my Christmas Tree. Thumbs Up

This the guy with the bike like a Christmas tree and a face like a Halloween cake?

Sounds like the earth from the headlights is finding a path back through the loom via the indicators. Find the loom earth and fix it.

My SP1 occasionally did some similar stunts, it was always down to a big brown connector block on the left side of the clocks, giving that a good clean solved it for me

Turns out it was just one of the connectors to the low beam light was playing about on the frame.

Stripped the front, plugged it back in, bingo.

Also to any SV owners we found out tonight that holes in the cheeks actually work very well at going over the bars supporting them leaving you to play about with the indy's still attached.
