Default Rocker Turn Signal Problem

Hey guys, first post here and I'm asking for help...I generally just get on here to read and learn, but I did a search and can't find much help.

Anyway, on the way to work today, hit my left turn signal at a stop sign and it "froze" in the on position. The rear left turn signal light just stays on and doesn't blink. The front blinker works as normal. On the dash, the left turn signal light is also "frozen" in the on (illuminated) position. Any thoughts? Thanks for any help.

Ed

Dang, sounds like it could be a serious issue... I would disconnect battery and see if it does it again if so take it to an indy or dealer asap

Thanks for the replies.

It was the damndest thing...on the way home it started working as normal. I'm guessing I may have a short in the wire. I'm taking my bike in for the 1000 mile service on FRI, I'll have them check it out.
