Indicator relay

[Posh Pete]

I suspect the indicator relay has gone phut on the GS. Before I order from MW, is there an alternative unit that can be got locally?

Take it to your local motor factors and ask.

I put one from a Mini on a Yamaha back in the 1970s.

Stop the bus! Whipped off the tank and gave the relay a couple of dunts! Fixed. For now at least!

I should have thought of that! Ta.

If you do need a new relay, consider a solid-state one. They blink at a fixed rate irrespective of load, so it makes fitting LED bulbs simple. Vibrations on my (non-BMW) twin killed indicator bulbs regularly.

Examples that probably won’t fit! Got mine off Amazon for £6.

Thanks. I'll bear that in mind for the future. It would be great if the Ferrari one fitted!
