Default faulty Run/Turn/Brake module ?

Does anyone know if HD's r/t/b module is particularly flaky and prone to dying?
I've had one installed for 3 months and i've lost the run-brake functionality in my right signal...

I really dig the r/t/b but I dont really want to buy another just to have it fry itself again. I'm not sure I can warranty it as i bought it from an US store and I live in Canada

Both right signals? Does your bike run 1156's or 1157's in the rear? If just the rear and 1157's I'd say a burnt filament. Replace bulb.

Hey I live in Vancouver too, where about are you?
What doesn't work on the right light? Turn? Running? Or all three? If one of them work, it shouldn't be the bulb, possibly a faulty module. I have the HD R/T/B module on my fatboy for years, never had problem. The only bad thing, people behind me don't realize when I brake, the running light and brake light are almost the same brightness, if I ever buy again, will go for some other ones. Remember HD electrical has 3 months warranty only, good luck!

The bulb's fine, it's only the run/brake that doesn't work... Signal works no problem. Def seems like the module!

Mine did that too after three months. Right side no runnng light. Pulled it and threw it in the trash. Kept the red lens on. Still sucks to pay 60 dollars for red turn lens.
