Electrical snafu. ???

Unit is a 2017 Drive 2 with factory lights, and road legal etc..

Unit came with one small LED for the blinkers. I have added two small strips of LED lights to the blinkers. I soldered wires onto the LED and then connected these wires to the original blinker wires. Started on the left and it works just perfect.

I installed the strips the same on the right blinker and when I turned the key on to test, the front blinker light stays on steady regardless of position of blinker lever. As long as the key is on, the light stays on steady. If I put the lever to the right blinker position, the rear blinker works as it should but the front blinker is on all the time and steady, not blinking. I have checked the new LEDs and they work great but stay on all the time when the key is on.

I don't know where to look for the problem and am hoping some electrical gurus can give me some help.

I have disconnected LED wires and did not help.

If the light stays on, even when the new LEDs are disconnected, you have likely damaged the flasher module (it's under the cupholders, ziptied to a vertical support).

Did your turn signal switch get wet? I had to seal mine. A couple drops of water had gotten in and whenever I powered up my accessories one blinker and the reminder light in the unit would stay on.

I can get you a yamaha part number tomorrow, but they aren't real cheap.
