    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

turn signal not working

on my 78 1000E my turn signal works very sporadically. Sometimes it will stay on when I click it over until I cancel it, other times I have to hold it in order for it to blink. I took apart the switch and cleaned all the contacts which didn't help. I also cleaned the connectors where it plugs into the wiring harness. Relay seems to be fine. Do I need another switch?
 
Judging by your sig, you already have another switch. Take one off one of your other bikes and try it - you'll probably answer your own question.
 
I actually don't have any switches available to try that would work
 
The search term to use is TSCU. There is a 'lot' of information on the matter. A couple 'tree' workarounds out there as well.

Yours is a first generation self cancel unit which were prone to failure.
