Default 93 sportster hugger no start

Hello I am new here and hoping someone can help me or knows whats going on. I bought a 93 sportster and it was running fine. I was wondering if it had hazard lights so i went searching on the net. I read that on some models if you push both left/right turn signals in at the same time and hold them in it would activate hazards if the bike had them....well i tried it. after holding them in i heard a loud relay click and the lights started flickering (not flashing like hazards), I turned the ignition off and turned it back on and i noticed the neutral light and oil light didn't come on, the horn didn't work, the signals wouldn't work and worst of all my bike wouldn't start. I turned the ignition off and on again and i heard a loud click of a relay and the front lights would just flicker. Did i blow a fuse or relay by pushing in both turn signals?

Don`t worry, you didn`t cause the problem, pushing both turn signal buttons won`t hurt a thing.

Simple stuff first, before you spend any money...

Make sure the battery is good (an auto parts store will load test it for free), and all battery cable connections are clean and secure.

Check the connections to the circuit breakers, there are three 15 amp breakers, and one 30 amp main breaker.

With ignition on, check voltage at each post on the main breaker, you should see system voltage on each post.

If it reads good, do the same for each 15 amp breaker.
