Help!!!!

bike: 07 1200 custom
I just put larger bars on my bike and now the turn signals, horn, and brake lights do not work. I soldered the wires one at a time to make sure I did not get the wires crossed at any point. I've also gone back and triple checked the wiring and the wiring matches perfectly. The Hi/Lo switch works fine and I've made sure the brake switch by pressing it in and letting it out. Any ideas?

have you pinched the cables between the switch blocks when screwing them bck together or under the bars? This could and would cause a short?

Look for a bad ground or exposed wire shorting against another or inside the bars.

Hey guys, thanks for the replies. I found the problem, I had a blown accessory fuse, swapped it out and she ran like a champ! If I knew how to post pictures on here I'd put pics up!
