indicators cut out

Post by skullie »

Hi guys , not been on for a while as zx4g is off the road (engine problems i think)

got hold of a zxr400 L1 version not long a go which has a minor problem

The indicators cut out at 2.5k and refuse to work at speed so i am buggered if i want to go down the motorway
The indicators are aftermarket not oem is it worth me getting a decent set of original ones ??


any help or advice will be helpful

FYI, there is no connections between the tacho or coils and the indicators, does it do this at a standstill, in neutral or in gear on paddock stands?

They are bulbs not leds , they do it whether on a stand or running , they are aftermarket indicators not the normal type found on a zxr normally the factory fitted version . Been told it might be the wire loom ??

If your physical bulbs are fine its time.to get the multimeter out and look for a wiring break.
