Morseman Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Hi all, A mate of mine has just bought a Virago 535 (don't know the year yet but I'll find out) and he thinks the indicators are flashing a bit fast. Is there an adjustment anywhere please? I've looked at some basic schematics and it looks like it's all done inside the relay unit. Thanks - Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slice Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Fraid so, it's usually a new relay if there is a problem, pretty cheap fix all in all. unless of course he has LEDs in it in which case it's again usually a relay but it's extra to the original to allow for the lower amperage I think? Folks on here will know more about that as some have fitted LEDs to their bikes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KirriePete Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 Check the wattage on the bulbs. The relays are usually setup to work properly with 21W bulbs at each corner. If you've got 10W bulbs or LEDs the flash rate generally goes up. Either replace the bulbs with the correct wattage or get a solid state relay, they have a preset flash rate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
