Default Turn signal mirrors

Had turn signal mirrors installed but kept my stock signals. The blinkers on both aren't syncing up. Mechanic said he couldn't do anything. Is that right?

Interesting. Not sure how I feel about that.

I have Kuryakins LED's (never could speel that!) and they blink in sync. I didn't get any electronic gizmos, just spiced them in to the wires feeding the stock signals...

I can't imagine what your mechanic is talking about. If the juice is flowing, the lights should be blinking.

If both sets are blinking, in sync or not, I'd be happy with that...but that's me.

Default Turn Signal Mirrors

I had Harley mirrors with LED turn signals installed. About 3 months after, the LEDs started going out. When I questioned the dealer about it I was told that the mirrors had a 30 days warranty. Now there are a couple of LEDs still working on each mirror. I can't seem to find anyone able to fix the problem.

I have the Harley mirrors also, and they don't blink in sync to the other turn signals
but I like it that way, I think (hope) it would be more noticeable to other drivers

Thanks all for the replies. Sounds like I should be satisfied that they are working in general.
