Default Tribar do not blink when hitting brake

I got Custom Dynamics Tribar on my 2022 ROak King Special rear fender. For some reason today I noticed it stay lit all the time even when I push the brake. What is strange is that my turn signals blink when I hit the brake just not tribar light.

I tried turning plugs but when I do it will turn off turn signals completely or just keep tribar lit.

Any ideas?

Do you have some kind of blink module? The CD Probeam tribar does not blink by default.

I agree with what's been said. There are other makers that have what you want like
this one this one
. I think eagle lights also carry them and others but might have to splice-n-dice

Give CD a call, they are very responsive and may have a solution for you.

I do have tripple play module in fact. So are you saying with this module this Tribar shouldn’t blink? That would be bummer as why would I spend $200 to have only running light that doesnt blink already? Is there any setting I should check on blinker module to correct it? Can you please provide more info

The factory tri-bar is running light only
The CD tri-bar is running and brake, it does not blink, strobe, flash or whatever you want to call it.

well this is incorrect if you have tripple play module tribar strobe same as blinkers when you hit the brake. Check this video at about 50 sec mark as he demonstrate it.

Call Custom Dynamics. Just call them. They know their products better than anyone. So give them a call.

That is a function of their Magic Strobe module as it says in the video you provided.
