Self cancelling turn signals....don't??
« on: June 15, 2016, 08:38:47 PM »
Seems like this is the correct place for this but I don't see another thread with the same issue.

My 1995 K75 self cancelling turn signals don't cancel about half the time. I know the bike has to be ridden a while before they do, but sometimes I'm quite a ways (miles even) and I notice they have not cancelled. Seems to do it on both sides. Manual cancel works fine, but I've gotten spoiled by my newer bike and just haven't gotten used to manual cancel again.

Appreciate any help.

Are your speedometer and odometer functioning correctly?

Yes, both work fine.

Check the connections on the back of the gauge cluster and on the flasher module socket in the relay box.  The Blue/Green wire from Pin 21 on the cluster going to Pin "I" on the flasher module carries the signal that causes auto-cancel.  Possibly contact corrosion at either end is causing your issue.  While you're at it, verify that there is continuity between these two pins. 

If you do have continuity and cleaning the contacts doesn't return the auto-cancel function, the problem will be inside either of those units (cluster or flasher), meaning you'll have to do some surgery to check.
