Default Left Blinker Problem

My left blinker will not turn off after you make your turn, once you turn then it stop working and started back, now when you start the bike, the left blinker will come by its self, the right one works fine, anyone help can help me with this.

I'm experiencing the exact same thing on my 00' Softail. Washed it 2 days ago and after that I had blinker problems. Left one stays on

I get his after I wash my bike sometimes as well. I think it'sthe TSSM getting wet and takes a while to dry out. I usually don't point the water towards it and I have been fine since.

Funny, I got caught in the rain two nights ago and washed it yesterday morning. Now my rear left blinder doesn't work.

You might need to change the blinker fluid. If one is lower than the other it could throw one or the other out of kilter.......

Nope........not out of kilter. All the classic symptoms of contaminated blinker fluid

Early 06 models seemed to have a bad batch of left turn signal switches. When you turn your ignition on, left signal operates immediately and will not cancel unless you turn the right signal on. Take it back to you dealer if its still in warranty. They are familiar with this problem
