Default turn signals

1977 FLH. Both turn signals quit. With the switch on the flasher starts to tick but the lights don't work. All the bulbs are OK. Any suggestions?

It sounds like your flasher relay. I just had to change the one in my '79 sporty. It was in the headlight housing. Easy fix and only about $3 at my local auto parts store.

Do you suppose that those turnsignals may be either fixed or the rider in jail for improper equipment by now? That was September the twelfth....
