I`m not an electrician, but I thought that I would be able to install these with no problems since they come with instructions.

However, the instructions are not well written.

I need help.

Does anyone know how to install these on an 07XB12?

Hmm, glad you mentioned that. I was looking at buying the Signalminder shortly, and I'm also NOT an electrician.

I've heard it's about a 30 minute job, but I guess that's if you know what you're doing.

I had a Signal Minder on my M2, and installing it was a piece of cake.
Have you tried to call Kisan? When I had a problem with my Signal Minder, they were really helpful over the phone.

The tail blazer should be pretty straight forward, but I too had a little trouble with the signal minder. It took a test light to figure out which wires I needed to tap into because the instructions were vague. Shoot me a PM if you have any specific questions and I'll try and walk you through it. Also, Kisan customer service is excellent. They'd be happy to help too I'm sure.

Well I got everything put together last night.
I bought Kellerman LEDs. They are fantastic. I`m amazed at how bright they really are.

It took me about 3 hours to do everything.
Not as hard as I thought it would be, but now I have two problems.

The SignalMinder allows the brake light to control the duration of the turn signals, but now I need to find the break light wire to tie into the SignalMinder.

Does anyone know which wire it might be?

And I tried to install the springs in the turn signal control, but no such luck. I couldn`t figure out how to put them in.

Anyone know how to do it?

Ok I got the lights working after some trial and error.

Now I have a big problem.

I opened up the light switch on the handlebars to install the springs (I wasn't able to) but when I did the spring(s) that are in the high/low switch jumped out. Does anyone have a copy of the light switch diagram?
