No turn Signals or Brake light

[farmdog]

Cant ride my Pitbull. Dont have brake light or turn signals or dash indicators for turn signals. brake lights dont work for front or rear levers. Speedo doesnt work also but may have quit before brake and turn signals. Suspect ehc module. How much are they and where to buy it. We dont have Big Dog dealer anymore in central Ohio. Also need right rear turn signal as I broke it trying to take it off. Thanks Farmdog

Watch the michigan/ohio bike week thread and it will soon show you how to repair you tail lite. Sounds like you have a shorted wire. Pull the rear fender, the wires are duct taped up. they may have come loose and rubbed.

right rear taillight wire is rubbed but on tire and not clear through, can that cause the problem?

If its touching any grounded surface or another rubbed wire it sure will. I'm not sure if it would cause all your trouble but that is where I would start. Trace the wires all the way back to confirm condition. I would still pull the rear fender and check the wires. Is the hollow bolt that hold the lite on broken? If so you can buy just the bolts. You have to pull the fender to repair. 4 bolts that hold the struts to the frame and 1 bolt at the bottom of the fender that holds the fender to the frame.

I pulled fender and only one wire was rubbed but not clear through. Turn signal bolt was frozen in turn signal and when I put extra to it sounded like plastic breaking.
