I finally fixed my turn signals. The issue was the relay flasher by the rear fairing on the left side of bike, and a blown turn signal fuse. Turns out that the relay flasher was getting stuck in one position, instead of making contact with and releasing contact to whatever it needed too for electricity to flow. This would cause a short circuit and blow my turn signal fuse. I installed a new 10A fuse, and poked it with a screw driver to unstick the relay and it started to flash a couple times but would stop. Turns out there was some dirt that got in between the metal contacts (probably got in there cause my fairing is cracked). As for my RPM backlight, I'm guessing it got burnt from the short circuit and needs to be replaced. If anyone runs into a similar issue I will be more than glad to outline my trouble shooting process and the details.
