Default 2001 ninja 250r turn signals / hazards?

so i have a ninja250 (2001)
bought from HT (w00t)

turn signals work great, left and right, front and rear, as well as indicator (on the display by the tachometer)

all of a sudden, the indicator doesn't light up anymore, and either direction on the turn signal button just makes all 4 turn signal lights flash, like hazards on a car.

am i retarded, and there is just some switch somewhere that turns the turn signals into hazard flashers? or is my wiring effed up? or what?

thanks

I have never heard of this. I would look into the wiring harness.

And congrats on the purchase!

yea, i asked around at some of my friends that ride, they had no idea either.

and the manual doesn't even have the same style turn signal control as my bike.

thanks on the congrats, i love the bike. too bad its slower than my civic, but at least the insurance is $350/yr for full coverage on a 20 year old d00d.

figured it out,
whoever cut out the rear plastic mounting plate / fender for the rear must have just used a sawzall, because all of the wires, power and ground, to the rear turn signals were bare and rubbing on eachother / the frame.

So i rewired it, and integrated them into the housings beside the tail light, there werent even any bulbs being run there....

Now I don't have the alien-antenna style rear turn signals, time for some flush-mount fronts. does anyone have a picture of a ninja 250 with flush mounted front turn signals?

The solution to this problem has been created. It's called the Ninja 250R No-Cut Diode Kit. It properly eliminates the 4-way blink problem AND restores the function of the turn signal indicator light in the gauge cluster.
