08 XT. Just had a bad headlight, which I replaced and noticed my turn signals not working. looks at the bulbs, all good. Replaced electronic signal flasher and still not turn signals. Fuse good.

What have I missed??

Got a voltmeter?

You'll need a diagram of the wiring. If neither side is working, I'd be checking grounds on the seat frame before anything else. You can fake it, jump the ground to a good, solid ground elsewhere.

After that, I would start with the switch. Check for ontinuity through the turn signal switch.

Check for continuity from connector to connector.

If you're in Cincinatti, I'm not too far away on the southside of columbus on the weekends until mid-October.

Steering head ground is usually first thing to check when stuff like that's not working. Be sure to pull on wire to check for internal break.

Three wires go to a Torx bolt up in front of the frame. I've fixed mine three times (poorly)

Next time it pops loose, I'll use something better than plumbing solder and a 250W soldering gun.

My horn just stopped working, perhaps it's time once again?
