Start with the basics: disconnect the battery first. I can’t stress that enough. It saves you from accidental shocks or shorts!
Great point! I always double-check that step. Safety should be our priority.
I’m curious about how to adjust the timing on the signals once you’ve installed the module. Any tips?
You can usually find the adjustments in the module settings. Check the user manual that came with it—it’s often very detailed!

Why is it always a battle with wiring? Turn signals should be simple! I had to redo mine three times!
Hey there! I’m having issues with my turn signals not blinking. Has anyone faced this before? Any diagnostic tips would be appreciated!

I had the same problem! It’s often a wiring issue. Check your connections and make sure there are no frayed wires.
My turn signal module went haywire last summer! Have you checked the fuse? Sometimes that does the trick.
Good point, Janet! I should look into that if I can’t find any wiring issues.

Also, don’t ignore the turn signal relay! If it’s faulty, it can cause signals to malfunction.
I’ve considered replacing my turn signal module altogether. Anyone know if aftermarket ones are reliable?
I’ve had mixed results with aftermarket parts. It’s best to research specific brands.
I once tried a cheap aftermarket module and it failed within a month. Stick with OEM if you can!
Have you checked for any error codes on your gauge display? That helped me diagnose a previous issue!
I didn’t think about that! I’ll look into it; thanks for the suggestion!

Honestly, if all else fails, a good mechanic familiar with Harley know-how can really save your day.
Nothing worse than signaling left and getting no response! Take it easy, though—it’s usually an easy fix! Just don’t ride without it!
