    Indicators not working

    I just connected my left side flush mount turn-signal, and now none of my indicators work at all. I had connected the two wires from the indicator together, could this have been the cause of the problem? In hindsight I probably should have taped them up individually rather than taping the two copper wires together. I don't think it's because of a need for a resistor as they are not LED's. But I'm not sure what the cause was so was wondering whether someone on KB had any idea of what the problem could be and how to fix it.

    If you have created a short it might have blown a fuse. Also, all four indicators may need to be wired up to complete a circuit.

    Any ticking from the relay?
    Check if you have power there and check fuses.

    Hey guys, thanks for the help. No, there is no ticking from the relay, and it is not the case that all indicators have to be wired up to complete a circuit. I tried plugging the stock one back in to see if it would work with all plugged in but I still got nothing.

    I'm thinking I may have blown a fuse. How would i go about checking this? Where is the fuse located?

    Not sure about the 6363, but, on the '07 and '08 6R it's under the RHS fairing at the front.



    EDIT: Google says under the rear seat for a 636

    found the fuse box under the rear seat, and sure enough the fuse for the indicators was blown. Thanks for the help guys, really appreciate it.

    Here is a pic . Lighting wasn't very good but oh well. Should pick that fuse up 2moro, and then the sexy flushmounts will be functional

    Would be my pick for a late model 600, unless I had coin for a new Gixxer6 with the white wheels.


    I'll stick to my old 600, the grandfather of SuperSports

    if you get the GSXR I hope you like cleaning, I had a white GPX in the 90's with white wheels. They just go a funny grey colour when you finally give up cleaning them twice a week and just get on with riding. Managed to put 50k on it in 12 months so it didn't leave much time for cleaning it.

    I haven't got the mney for a new toy like that.
    I had white wheels on my Bros650..it also had a Scotoiler, so you can imagine how that worked out for me....
    My ZZR600 is going to have black centers and polished lips, so they'll be pricks too.
