Question Turn signals dont flash (but hazards do)

The turn signals on my 94 sporty dont flash, you hit the switch/button and the light stays solid. I've checked all the bulbs as well as the TSM connection. I'm thinking its the module, however, the hazards still work. I'd think the hazards wouldn't flash if the module was faulty. Anyone know how to test the TSM?

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Thanks

I think there's a flasher relay as well as a blinker relay. Check your manual.

Thanks for the reply

Thats awesome cuz now I know its indeed the module, but sucks cuz they're spendy. Did you replace yours w/ an OEM, or aftermarket?

I dont plan to run LED, should I go for the cheaper aftermarket w/ a built in equaliser anyway? I was looking at this https://www.denniskirk.com/badlands/...rd/H21075.sku? Not sure if it'll fit in the stock location or how quality the wires/connector are but the price is right considering HD wants $140.

Not sure from the description written by Dennis Kirk. Give 'em a call, they should be able to answer your question.
