RD350LC Turn Signal Flasher needed

#1 Post by AZRD350LCGUY » Tue Oct 05, 2021 7:10 pm

I replaced my old wiring harness with a new one and have not been able to get the turn signals to work.
After some research on the net I found that the 10 watt bulbs were not going to work. I needed 27 watt for the system to work. i replaced all the bulbs with the proper 27 watts units and the flasher still only buzzes. The lights turn on but do not flash.
Does anyone have a good used unit I can buy. New OEM are priced at $110 to $160.
This bike is a daily runner not a garage queen only taken out for shows.
My email is twinmaxfc@juno.com or 703.987.6342
Thanks,

Pull it apart and clean it, Ive found one that didnt work had some kind of ants nest in it.

Sadly not cheap at all now, new is the best option for longevity etc.

I use these in all my bikes, 350lcs, rz350s. Gammas. RZ500S. No probs at all. Buy 2. I’ve had the odd one not work at all. But the ones that work are still working. Not one has failed on me.

Those are two prong plugs, the RD350LC has a three prong type. What is the difference in operation??
