Hi all. I'm hoping somebody can help because I'm at a loss. I have no turn signals. I have changed the circuit board in the tail light, one of the connectors from one of the turn signals, the harness going under the fender, The turn signal module (eBay), the fuse, both handlebar switches, and I still have no turn signals. I put a Badlands TSM on and I get front left turn signal but the other still don't work. I'm ready to torch this thing.
Yes I checked all the fuses. There's not a single splice in the harness. When I push the left turn signal button I get the front left turn signal but not the rear. And only if I add a aftermarket flasher plugged in between the main harness and the harness that runs under the fender. Nothing happens when I hit the right turn signal. And nothing happens when I push both turn signals. It's possible I bought a bad TSM but both of them are acting the same...
Leave any aftermarket stuff off for now, so you can troubleshoot the wiring to make sure the circuits are intact.
First, let`s make sure the TSM is getting the signal from the turn signal switches on the handlebar:
Unplug the TSM.
At the TSM connector on the harness, read the voltage at the White/Violet wire in the connector when you press the left turn signal button (ignition on).
What is the voltage reading?

TSM removed and...
White/violate = 12.3v while holding left turn button.
White/black, next wire, 12.3 while holding right button

I have 12 volts at the turn signal input at the TSM plug when you push the appropriate turn signal button. So whatever the problem is, it's not the input circuit.
