A couple questions, please help.....
So I'm ordering a new mirror w/turn signal to replace the one that was defective.
1. So since these have only two wires am I connecting them to the Violet and the Black wires from the bike, am I correct in that I cannot have running lights with these?
2. If that is the case, and I want to have running lights, can I then use that unused blue wire to power a running light?
I am hoping to somehow now run turn/running light combo lights on the forks. The ones I have again only have two wires.
3. Is there any way to get a two wire LED to be both a running light and a blinker?

 

I put the HD mirrors with LEDs on my bike and I had to leave the bullet blinkers in order for it to work, I was hoping to eliminate the stock blinkers but I have not figured out how to do it yet, the mirrors came with wiring instructiong as well as all the required plugs. the Mirrors only had one wire and a ground and have a circuit board in the wiring harnes and require feed back from the existing lights to make them work?

 

If you want to do a little creative wiring you could hook your mirrors to the running light circuit with a normally closed relay in line and use the signal wire to fire the relay which would cause the circuit to open every time it fired giving you a turn signal.

 

Not real familiar with the setup you have. Didn't you get wiring instructions with the mirrors? They may actually be running/turn signals. You probably have a common ground. One wire would be for signal and the other wire would be for running light. You can test this by either mounting the mirror to the bike or making sure it is well grounded. Using a meter figure out which wire on the bike is running light and which is signal. With ignition on the running light power will be constant and the signal will be on/off. (Make sure to turn on the signal switch on the side you are testing .) Using the wire you found to be running light make a temporary connection to one of the two wires you have on the mirror and see if it lights up. Now connect to the other wire and see if it lights. Now all you have to do figure out which is signal and which is running light on the mirrors and connect appropriately. Assuming you didn't get a wiring diagram have a close look on the mirror and see if you can't find some kind of indication as to which wire is signal and which is running. If nothing see if one is brighter than the other when power is connected. I would assume the brighter to be the signal. You could also see if you can find the maker on the internet and look for specific information.

 

Hmm, well I did start out with the right mirror running and blinker, but then I started running the left side, mounted mirror and when I touched the wires to see what worked blew about 7 fuses trying this over n over. So then I bought a badlands load eq and tried again, I think I fried the blinker cuz now it does nothing. Now I disco'd both front blinkers, taped them up tucked em away and plan on riding to work tomorrow

 

Si what part did you end up ordering?

 

I can no longer find the directions on the Custom Dynamics page, but...

You can have turn and running on a two wire setup (ground and power) by using diodes and a resistor. Assuming you don't mind the running light to be a bit dimmer...
Unfortunately I no longer have the directions, this is how I put run/turn/brake lights on my tour-pak using a led strip.

the details are out there somewhere ... I'll keep looking but hopefully someone else has it.

 

i just put the yaffe middle finger leds on my bike, they are run, stop, and turn. they work well and and look good

 

I too eliminated my bullet lights and used truflex from custom dynamics. Here is my setup i created for my 07 SG.
