[angus]

just bought gs 850 gl 82 indicators working on left side nothing on right.When left turned on you hear the normal sound of them working,when right turned on all you hear is a clicking(buzzing) sound comming from the relay.Could relay be faulty and still work 1 side.Also where can I get second hand spares,no joy after hours searching the web.Conan

Greetings and Salutations!!

Hi Mr. angus,

Yes, a faulty turn signal relay can act that way. First thing to do is make sure you have stock value bulbs all the way around. The stock flasher relay wants to see a specific load on the blinkers.

You'll want to check out all of the general maintenance documentation on my little website, articles for charging system repair and maintenance, tank cleaning, valve adjustment, proper carb cleaning, etc.

Also make sure signals on both sides and front/back are properly grounded.
