What vehicle/motorcycle are we talking about? Did you change any light bulbs lately (maybe changed some to LEDs?)?
If it's all original lights/flasher then: I would start by checking the "Flasher" and any/all wires leading to your switch/buttons, the lights/horn, fuses, and the ground wires. Usually a "solid/not flashing blinker" is due to a burnt out bulb, not enough electric draw to cause the "Flasher" to work, or an old and tired "Flasher" that doesn't work anymore (most only have a working life of 60 to 140 hours). If it is your "Flasher" might I suggest looking into the Tridon brand (made in Australia), I always use them when I needed a new Flasher, I'm still using the one I bought 14 or 15 years ago for my Eagle Talon  and it only cost $10 or $12 last time I bought one.If you changed to LED Turn Signals, then you will need to either wire in some resistors or find a LED Flasher that is compatible with your vehicle... Both I'm not the best at with helping, I always got my Dad or the Internet to help me with the LED Turn Signals/Resistors wired.

Just one. The blue and orange wires should come from either side of the ts switch.

 Just one Flasher should work for the entire system, but it depends on what bulbs and watts/amps drawn on them to what Flasher you will need. With the horn, you will need to wire in a fuse and relay also to get it to work properly, might need to check the ground(s) if it already has a relay/fuse wired in

Sorry to say this.... Really mate.. If yer didn't know you needed a flasher unit I don't think you should be playing around with the wireing at all... And if you want to learn.... have someone beside you to learn from... ..

Love doing it
[QUOTE=pete;208105]Sorry to say this....
Really mate.. If yer didn't know you needed a flasher unit I don't think you should be playing around with the wireing at all... And if you want to learn.... have someone beside you to learn from... Yes I agree, but right now Spud is taking me step by step in the process of learning, I do not have anyone to show me, and I wish I did. This is a good learning fase for me and enjoying every minute, I have a lot of patients trust me. With 3 kids in the house I'm good to go  This will teach me a lot, I enjoy doing it. |

Yeah that harness would of been good, but I'm almost completed this setup. Just need to figure out why the horn is not working and the Blinkers are not blinking. The Trigger finger button too.. hmmm |
