Turn Signal Flasher

Former Member

I have a 2005 Vintage Speedster and periodically the turn signals quit flashing. Usually I clean out the bulb sockets and that clears up the problem. Some of the time the signals work fine manualy but will not flash automatically. Anyone else fought this battle ?

Next time you have bulbs out apply di-electric silicone grease - keeps them from corroding. Dynatex and CRC make it -- others too.

Thanks for all of the tips. You are correct and I have the "applied with silicon" day of the week version. I will pry it off and find a new "heavy duty" model. Norm

I took a peace of SS radiator hose clamp and made a holder for mine. It clips on to the colum , S shaped.a large and small end. the large matches the colum ,small the flasher.

Thanks, another good idea ! The turn signals are working right now so I've chosen to wait a bit to change the flasher unit.
