    turn signal / HL light & horn switch alternative?

    My new to me 83 850g's switch or its attached parts are kaput.

    The horn works and that's it.

    Is it worth while to open the switch up or are there alternatives?

    I think I can rig the horn and H/L w/ radio shack parts.

    Where is the turn signal blinker relay(?) located? The part that makes the light blink.

    The turn signal relay, if it's like my '80 model is located under the right side cover.

      Why not find a new/used hand control and fix the bike right? Ebay or a salvage yard has parts. A hand control from just about any 850/1000/1100 that had self canceling turn signals will interchange.

          I have traced the problem to the turn signal relay. (strategically placed screwdriver into the clump of rust will turn the lights on but no blinking)

          Where can I buy one?

          I am not smart enough to find it on Bikebandit's site and searches lead me to questionable used ones.

          Are there other flasher relays I can substitute?
