Default turn sigs

[quote=oct1949;11976895]U havent said anything about Ur turn sigs. Are they cancelling OK or taking longer sometimes to cancel after a turn?.

Theirs a speedo sensor in the tranny that can cause problems with both. (turn sigs and speedo).
heres some reading U can do to learn more.
https://www.google.com/search?q=harl...m=122&ie=UTF-8

This past spring Our bike had slow cancelling turns at times, not every time. Wrench said probably need to clean the tranny sensor or replace it. He said they get a dirty film and cant send proper sig. On our 07 they are a biddy to get to so I though I'd wait till fall storage to do it.

What was weird when I change tranny fluid this summer I went back to 20-50 syn oil instead of the GL and after a few hundred miles, Problem gone.

Thanks for the link man. Will read it after I get this off to you. Yes, my turn sigs fail to cancell when the speedo is not working which is about 50% of the time she's running. I have located and removed the sensor to clean it but it weren't too dirty. Didn't make a difference though. I'm running the syn Red line Vtwin tranny fluid but it don't even show a weight on the container. At times the digital miles shows and then blinks off. Sometimes when I smack the top of the speedo while driving it starts working. I've had it out twice and am sure getting tired of the problem. $450 for a new one but Deuce parts are hard to come by anyway. Well, I better get to reading your link...thanks again.

Where is that circuit breaker?
Under the seat on the fender. On mine, the fuse with the orange/white lead is the speedo/turn signal one. If yours has a circuit breaker, I would replace it with a 15 amp fuse. If that works, then the circuit breaker was your problem. Go get a new 15 amp circuit breaker. They're about $5 at an auto parts store.
