My S2 turnsignals have quit. Tested all the wiring according to the manual and all checks out fine. Lights work when jumpered as the manual says to do, but will not work with the module plugged in. I have tried 2 seperate modules....no luck. They do however work on the other S2 that I have. Dont know what to do! Any suggestions? Please Help.

I second the grounds as I just recently had my front fairing stay off and was plagued by bad grounds at every turn.T+In the plugs,behind the dash, at the turn signal itself.Drove me crazy.

Yes, I did check the grounds. They have a solid connection. Took them all apart and cleaned them. Ohmed them out....just like new.

I recently put some LEDs in my brakelight and missed the ground ring at the rear of the bike. Indicator on the dash would come on, but no light at either end of the bike. I went right to the rear of the bike because I knew I had just been there and found it quickly enough...

Do the hazards work?

Nothing works...but if you do the diagnostic from the repair book they work perfectly. And the control module works on another bike.

I'd check the wire harness coupler plugs in the fairing stay.They take a beating from the weather and get loose over time.

Finally found some relief....tore apart all connections and cleaned them and reassembled. Miraculously the turnsignals worked again. I am still confused on how the worked diagnostically, but not through the control module though. Either way I am happy they work once again. Thanks for all the good advice.
