I recently removed all turn signals and went with Rolland Sands Designs and I am running into a minor issue. I cut the wires at the hand controls, heat tubed, and rolled back into the controllers. For the new signals I installed them on the forks me have them going into the auxiliary plug ( Harley makes for turn signal relocation / lighted mirrors, etc).
All works perfect for flashing except in the dash I have a hyper flashing signal only for left and right, not 4 way.
For those of you with experience in can systems, should I be wiring my signals into 'can low' and 'can high' that run up to the hand grips? I am wondering if it can't tell the lights aren't there.
I just had this. External turn signals flash normally and the flasher on the dash hyperflashed.
Go to the dealer and get a load balancer. It took me about 3 minutes to install, take seat off, disconnect flasher plug, plug this in, put seat back on, right signal, left signal, right signal, done.
If you have the can bus system, you should be able to run your bike with the hazard lights on for 5 minutes to reset / resync the can bus system with your new lights voltage readings. This removed the hyper flashing on my SGS.
Reset dashboard signal indicators: (canbus equipped models only)
-turn key to start position.
-run 4-ways for 20-30 seconds
-leaving 4-ways on, turn key to off position then back to run.
Done deal.
