Default turn signal stays on??
2009 crossbones. i relocated the front signals to the forks. I didnt do anything with the wiring, just unbolted and rebolted it to the bracket. Now, the right front turn signal stays on, it will blink when you press the button, but if the accessories switch is on, so is the light... i changed bulbs already, same thing... any clue? sorry if this is a newby question...

The front signals are running lights as well and should both stay on and blink when you hit the turn signal buttons.

You figured it out. I wanted to see if you would get that before telling you the other bulb must have a burnt out filament.

Awe come on OO, you've got some mechanically inclined skills - hopefully you can field strip your Weapons? And that would count.
