The light that flashes on the dash when you put your indies on has stopped working on the RHS indicators. The LHS ones are all disconnected ATM, so can't try them until tomorrow. Any ideas, anyone?

This bike really is just one problem after another Laughing

Cheers,
Jon

Does the bike have only one dash indicator light for both left and right-hand sides? If so, the disconnected LHS may be a factor in why the light isn't working. On one of my older bikes, both LHS and RHS provided one wire input each to the indicator (instead of a separate hot and ground conection). If one of the circuits were disconnected, the indiator wasn't able to utilize both wires, so it wouldn't work.

I'd try reconnecting the LHS lights and then see if the indicator works again. Hope this helps!

Either that or the piddly litle bulb in the dash has gone.
