blinker issue
So few weeks ago I installed undertail with integrated LEDs.
Wired everything up, bought a new blinker, l552a I think? As per a DIY. Everything worked great on multiple occasions when testing everything. Today was first time I got to ride bike since last November, road to work this morning and everything seemed great. Took a quick spin at lunch time and about 10 minutes in, I noticed my dash signal indicator wasn't lighting up and I could not hear other signals/blinker working or see them working either. I thought, blinker came unplugged/loose. Pulled over, took seat off and blinker is fine, but not working. (managed to break stupid screw driver in the bikes tool bag) Figured I will look at it closer when I get home, that's the plan. After that it would work on occasion but generally only blink once or twice then quite entirely again? When I parked the bike it worked again for a little then quit again? Any ideas, I will go through all the electrical under the seat ect... to see if I can find anything goofy

Tridon EP 34 is the one that's been found to work on our bikes. It has three prongs so one needs to be grounded. But i had issues with the EL 12* when I converted my front blinkers to LEDs. The EP 34 has a nice steady blink.
Watch out for off brand ones, the Napa one had problems. *edit: fixed from saying the wrong relay.
