Will Blinker Buddy work on my motorcycle?

To determine if Blinker Buddy will work on your motorcycle, check the list on the left or you may follow these steps.

(1) Is there one indicator light for two directionals?
If your bike has only one indicator light which flashes to alert you when the signals are on and this light flashes when either the left or right circuit is activated, then Blinker Buddy should work for you. The 2 wires that operate the indicator light will be used to power the Blinker Buddy.

(2) Check your Wiring Diagram.
Determine from the manufacturer or wiring diagram of your bike if your blinker system has a common or shunted ground between the left and right blinker circuit. You will use the positive wires from each circuit to power the Blinker Buddy.

(3) Physicaly test your bike.
Do this with the key off. Remove both rear turn signal bulbs from their sockets. If you have dual filament bulbs, you need to make sure you are going to be touching the signal circuit and not the running lights circuit. Turn the signal on (left or right). Turn the key on. Using a 12 volt test light, carefully connect it across the two center conductors in the bulb sockets. This is the place where the center of the bulb base makes contact down in the middle of the socket. Do not touch the sides! The test light should flash with the selected left or right circuit. If the other side also flashes, (like 4-way emergency flashers) and all 4 corners of the bike are flashing or if the flash rate changes or stops, then Blinker Buddy will not work on your bike unless you install 2 small relays. (refer to Relay Installation below)

Relay Instalaion
You will need 2 small 12 volt relays. Each coil will get power from the turn signal circuit. One on the left and the other on the right. One wire of the relay coil will connect to the positive signal feed and the other relay coil wire will connect to ground. You will need to supply a 12 volt source from your accessory circuit to the normally open contacts of each relay. The other side of the relays contacts will be connected to one wire of the Blinker Buddy and the other wire from the Blinker Buddy will go to ground. (see the diagram) The positive wire that feeds the contacts needs to be fused if it is not already being done by the bike accessory circuit. A 10 amp. quick blow fuse is more than adequate. The relay should have very low coil current draw and contacts rated for at least 10 amps. (We will post the information on the best ones to use once we start getting feedback from those who have completed this modification)
