Default Problem with indicator

So I've been having a problem with my 2015 Fatboy Lo indicator dash lights for your high beam low beam and your left hand blinker so I've been reading this and saw a post where a guy soldered up wire from one side to the other to make power on the circuit board so I did that and it does work but now I have no power to the right side of the circuit board for the right side blinker and the neutral light and my ABS light is flashing now any help

Your post runs all over the place.

Could you make it clear exactly what the issue is, just the facts?

Sounds like you need to remove all "soldered up wire from one side to the other to make power on the circuit board" and return everything to stock.
Then troubleshoot the real problem.

Okay so I lost my high beam indicator light and my left hand blinker on the circuit board and I seen a post for a guy soldered a wire from one terminal to the other and it fixed it which I did and it picks that problem somewhere along the way I lost the right side blinker and my neutral light and I have tested it and I think the LED bulbs are blowed because I have power on this haircut just no light

@Fatboy 15 Welcome to the Forum from Utah.

Are you soldering jumpers on the instrument bezel #11?

Looks like the battery fuse supplies power to each indicator, the speedometer must provide a path to ground for the light to come on. Can bus signal tells the Speedometer when to turn on each light.

If you've been soldering on the bezel and it's less than $10, replace it and start over troubleshooting the real problem.
