blinkers work sometimes

Lately i have been havingt this problem. Sometimes the blinkers work,a nd sometimes not. I checked the relay and it looks fine.. As far as i can tell.

On a ride, it might not work for 20 miles, then the next it will work.

I thought it might have been the vibration causing the relay or something to malfunction.

Anyone know what might be the cause.

Check the connection, sounds like they are either loose or you have a bad wire or ground.

Is it just one side at all? Or both?

In any case, take all four apart and check the contacts/wiring

it is stock signals and stock relay. If the signals go out, they go out for all of them. Even the blinking signals in the dash disappears.

I am thinking ground wire, could be a bad switch too.

is this your bike with like 80k miles on it? I would try just replacing the blinker relay to start with before I started checking all the wiring.

The bulbs are good, its a weird wiring problem.

But can't find it, i looked at all the wires and they appear good. But i need to take a bit more time to look through it.
