Tail light works, signals don't
On my 04 1800C I removed my front turns a few weeks ago when one mounting bracket was stripped by my mechanic (it's okay - we have an arrangement and I'm looking for something better) and left the wires in the headlight. My rear signals ran fast, so I ordered the diode fix, a replacement flasher, LED clusters for tailight and rear turns, and smoked rear lenses (goin' DARKSIDE soon), which all arrived this week for installation this coming weekend. Coming to work today my rear signals and indicator light stopped working, but the tailight/brakelight works fine, which makes me think fuse, but should the taillight also be out in that case? I can't check it out myself until tomorrow (work and plans), but would appreciate any input y'all have Thanks!

Update: Just rode on my lunch - Could it be the turn indicator bulb burned out?

Re: Tail light works, signals don't
taillight and signals are on different fuses... wires in the headlight bucket could have grounded out blowing the fuse, or something with your resister install?

Thanks you guys!
I started by checking the leads from the fronts inside the headlight bucket, but the connectors have a rubber sleeve and look okay, which is why I didn't try harder to isolate them when they were disconnected. Then I popped in my new non-load dependent flasher and VOILA! All is well again! I still need to do the diode fix so I can install my LED rear turns/run lights. The LED taillight looks bright even though I used a smoked lens since I'm about to go DARKSIDE! I just wanted to participate in some tech talk that is non - tire related...Thanks again!
