turn signal indicator lamp

[ericsh]

Hello, I'm new to this post. Just got a 2002 Blackbird yesterday. 2800 miles, runs fine except - the right turn signal indicator on the dash illuminates constantly, however ALL 4 bulbs work (flash). The LEFT rear bulb does not illuminate like the other 3 when the directional is off. This is very puzzling??? Any expertise out there??? The bike is from a high humidity area, and I live in Phoenix. Thanks in advance, Eric

I would look in the tail section. I think someone wired in a SOS priority lite module incorrectly. You know, one of those modules that lights your rear turn signals as running lights and brake lights.

Check the wiring plugs at the rt. front T/S lamp (3) wires color coded and relace the bulb if the wires look ok, pull the mirror boot back you can pull the wires out to check that they are plugged into the correct colors. Bulb filaments can backfeed these circuts. The ground wire could be unplugged at that junction, the mirrors are probably installed at the dealer when it is uncrated, that would be my first guess, it was never plugged in tight by the tech and the ground is open backfeeding the circut.

Sorry to jump into this thread but.. Joe, my 2000 model has the rear turns signals set up as turn and running. I thought they all came this way? My rears are stock but with shortened stems. Does this mean the original owner put 1157 bases and wired the rears up this way??
