I have a 2008 XL 1200L

bike has security factory installed.

DEALER INSTALLED upon purchase in spring 2008: relocated rear turn signals-due to saddle bag needs. extra front headbeam style running light(3 head lights are on bike plus 2 front blinker), heated grips.

troublesome area:
installed by kuryakyn spring 2009 at an event: LED front turn signals, flashing rear turn signals and brake light. rear signals flash along with brake light briefly before solid brake light.

These worked fine for about 3 days. now my right rear signal will not illuminate or flash. the right front stays lit as a running light but will not flash for signal. brake light only illuminates as running light. no increased intensity when using brake lever/pedal.

went to kuryakyn and they said there is power to the rear center light, left rear pin has power, right rear pin has power in. no power out. they suggested contacting harley. they think it is a turn signal module.

went home from event and I removed the kuryakyn load equalizer and put everything back to OEM. I have both front yellow blinker/running lights, left rear running light, brake light works. No right rear running light or turn signal, no front right signal. security key on speedo is constantly illuminated while bike is in motion/running. I performed the clear security sequence and still same on the right.

I am guessing that my turn signal module is blown. however, if this will continue to happen with LED's, there must be a work around.

any one make this work on their bike? if so how?

thanks in advance for the help.

 

If you have a run/brake turn module try removing that and see if it makes a difference. Mine went south after about a year and drove me crazy until I removed it altogether.

 

looks like the TSSM is shot.

so why do LED's cause this?

what is the work around?
