ahaywood93 Posted May 1, 2013 Author Share Posted May 1, 2013 well i had to cut the clip connector off and just connect the 2 wires to it but i only did it one way should i try swapping the wires around? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator DirtyDT Posted May 2, 2013 Moderator Share Posted May 2, 2013 What happens if you connect the original flasher relay? Does it just change the flash rate or does it work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Cynic Posted May 2, 2013 Moderator Share Posted May 2, 2013 Have you changed modified or changed the idiot light on the dash? If you only have 1 for both sides then electrically all4 are connected. Its only the resistance of the bulbs causing only one side to work. Because there is not the power to actually light the other bulbs. Led's obviously need so little power they work fine. You need to alter the wiring in the instrument cluster. The 2 feeds need connecting together with one way diodes in each then connect to the bulb. The remaining connection goes to earth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator Cynic Posted May 2, 2013 Moderator Share Posted May 2, 2013 66k. Fair enough. That would be good for a 125 4st on a dt its unbelievable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NEV Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 Before you go and buy a Top Racing crank, have a read of this, not trying to put you off, but forewarned is forearmed so to speak,There have been other accounts of them being substandard, but this one came to hand,http://dt125r.activeboard.com/t49017647/ahhh-so-thats-why-it-went-bang/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
