    Turn Signal module

    1979 GS850G with Windjammer fairing-Right turn signal doesn't work. Manual says module under right cover-it isn't. Where is it?
    Thanks;

    If your's is in the same place as my '79 1000, it's strapped to the battery case, behind the right side cover. All black and about the size of a cig' pack.
    And on the seventh day,after resting from all that he had done,God went for a ride on his GS!
    Upon seeing that it was good, he went out again on his ZX14! But just a little bit faster!

      It should have a rubber strap holding it to the side of the battery case under the right side cover. Check the bulbs, ground wires, maybe try another flasher. If the turn signal module is bad??? you are screwed very expensive if you can find one. Personally I changed my 79 to manual turn signals

        On my 78 GS1000 the unit is on a separate plate under the left side cover as you sit on the bike. The fuses, regulator and rectifier (yes, they are separate units) along with the starter solenoid also live there. It looks like the same setup as later GSX1100s (separate reg/rect apart). It is separate to the battery case. I cleaned the contacts of the indicator unit a while back, it works much better and consistently.

        The battery sits deeper down on my bike. Did they change the location on some bikes?
