NewBonneville FEK turn signal problem, please help.

I just installed my FEK kit (with turn signal relocation mount) on my T100. the Break light and my LEFT turn signal works great, normal as normal can be...

but when i tried the RIGHT turn signals, the FRONT RIGHT light started working double time (rapid flashes) and the new REAR RIGHT turn signal would not work at all...=*(

I checked, double checked, and triple checked, and according to the directions i did all of the wiring properly.

can anyone help? i'm having an OCD/ADD/anxiety attack...its gunna be beautiful outside this weekend and i'd love to go for a spin.

Had the same problem, took mine completely apart and found the wires inside the light werent connecting inside the threaded part. . .so i took that out and superglued the threaded part back in after re-attatching the wires and badabing works like a charm. Just an FYI it would also be best to solder all connections if you can, otherwise any water gets into em and then you got to wait for it all to dry out for em to work again. . .I recommend soldering then wrapping with electric tape and sealing the tape good and tight with a lighter. NB cant really control the manufacturing of the signals but I'm sure if you don't want to go through that and you send it back they will send you a new set lickety split. . .with more candy to boot! I decided to rig mine up just because I was going for a few hours ride oh about 3 hours after I installed it. Hope this helped a bit!

I updated the relay to this one to help the quick flash problem.

ABES -

Be sure you plugged in the wires correctly, I had the same problem when I installed mine.. turned out I had the wires crossed. Don't know which signals you got, but if I remember correctly the color coding on the wires is kinda bass ackwards.

Check the wiring, (goes for the tailight too) before pulling things apart!

Need to be sure the tailight is grounded, I actually added a ground wire from the taligiht bolt (on the back) to the ground in the harness to get a better ground

same here blew fuses screwed my alarm and caused nothing but trouble. was wired just like it should... except one of the indicators was incorrectly soldered inside... nothing but a headache... I suggest you take them apart and check the wiring is correct in the first place.
