Default Run/Turn/BRAKE problems

I have this posted over in the Electrical forum but there is not much traffic over there so I'm posting it here in the Dyna forum as well.

My right rear turn signal lamp will not work in run or brake mode only in turn mode now. I have had the HD module on since about October 2013. Everything works fine on the left side and I plugged the right signal into the left side and it work on the left so no problems with the signal or bulbs. Anyone have an idea on whether the new RTB Module can just go out on one side and whether it is repairable?

The only change I've made since I installed the RTB module was to add CD Dynamic Ringz in the front turn signals. Bought them at Daytona at the CD vendor booth.

What kind of warranty does HD have on it electrical parts?

Does anyone know if you can repair a run turn brake module that seems to be burned out on the right side only? it only lasted about 5 months for about $65 dollars. That's mighty expensive for something that has HD written on it.

I've heard of multiple people having issues with the HD rtb module after only a short time. My dad had the kury one and it only lasted about a year.

I had a Kuryakyn module go bad.
It happens.
Bought another, took the other apart and you could see the problem.
Just get another.

I probably won't buy another one that only has a 90 day warranty. $14-$15 per month is expensive for an add on. It should last longer than 5 months and 2000 miles. Harley's quality on this item is terrible in my opinion. Low quality, Overpriced item. It really should be a safety item required on all new bikes.
