Gotta ask, head scratcher.
So, i removed the turn signals from my 83 1100e. Now it blows fuses and dash quit working. Do i need to loop some wires now? I checked all connections in headlight, only empty ones are turn signals. I think.Tags: None

That alone shouldn't cause the symptoms you describe, assuming of course that they were wired correctly to the stock configuration when you removed them. Look at the open ends in the wiring harness to see if the wires are grounding.
Do you have a wiring diagram for your specific bike (both model and year)? Trace every connection in the headlight bucket and compare them to the diagram, looking for inconsistencies.
Now then, why did you remove the turn signals in the first place? If you plan on replacing them with aftermarket ones, make sure the bulb amp ratings are similar to the OEM ones, or you could be blowing fuses with them.sigpic

Figured it out. Duh me. Swapped a couple plugs. All good now.
No signals required in Florida hand signals work for me.
