Hi newbie to this site (front indicator not working)

[Ranciddave669]

Wondering if anyone can help me out...

I have a 2003 R1 noticed the other day that the front left indicator was intermittently working now its died completely. I have changed the bulb, cleaned all the connections on the indicator housing and cleaned the connections on the turn light relay under the riders seat. I have checked to see if there is voltage with a multi meter and the bulb housing and there is. when I put it all back together it worked woohooo I thought then came back to ride it today and its not working again. Any suggestions would be very welcome.

Thanks

That's a strange way to introduce yourself

Tell us a bit about yourself and the bike, well other than what we already know.

Sounds like you've got a short somewhere.

Jompy looks tall to me...... Even taller to you mate.

Welcome in Dave the only thing I can think of is that you may have a broken wire ie the wire broken inside it's sheath somewhere or a badly corroded wire that makes an intermittent connection.

This is a great forum, peeps are helpful... Believe it or not, loads of good humoured banter and we support each other. We like to get to know peeps so tell us a bit about your biking history and post some pics of your bike, we love pics on here.

Good luck with finding the fault on the indicator.
