My friend Gilbert bought a 91 K100RS 4 Valve bike that had been sitting for a very long time. He now has the engine purring like a kitten but the turn signals are giving him a chalenge.
When he turns on the bike without even starting the motor some of them will blink only if he holds down the switches. The symptoms will change almost every time he shuts off and turns on the bike.
He has checked and cleaned the ground wires under the tank. He cleaned and or replaced every bulb and socket. We have tried 2 other blinker relays.
Here are more symptoms:
Sometimes the Motrinic or ABS warning relays seem to make a blinking sound.
Sometimes the blinker relay buzzes.
Sometimes the turn signals will work and the next time others will work.
I have seen them all work some of the times.
There seems to be no pattern in what causes the buzzing or blinking sound.
All of this was demonstrated to me without starting the motor.
The bike has a New fully charged Battery. Battery connectors are clean.
He says that when he test rode the bike he doesn't think that the ABS braking system was working.
Any suggestions or advise will be passed on and is appreciated. Thank you.....
