I know the turn signals have been an issue. I am stumped on this one. I had a right rear turn signal go out which in turned caused the fast blinking on the right. Well I had planned on replacing the stock signals anyway and didn't feel like messing with taking it into the dealer. So I put the new rear led signals on. Both rear signals are working fine but I am still getting the fast blink on the right only. The fronts work fine. What is causing that fast blink???

The aftermarket signals are probably not putting enough load on the circuit - you will need to add some resistors in line.

Perhaps there's an issue with the right front blinker? If the fronts are both working fine and the rears are identical, then both sides should flash at the same rate. The same rate might be fast or it might be slow, but it should be identical on both sides.

Also, Captain Spelling Nazi says "it's spelled 'dilemma'". : )

I was thinking it could be a wiring issue. Nothing else made sense to me. Im pretty sure Harley wont be willing to warranty anything after replacing the stock signals

I apologize for any grammatical issues!

Try putting the good original left signal in place (temporarily) on the right side and see if that makes it blink at the correct rate.. If so swap back to the new one and see if the rate changes.. If it does it's a load issue
