Step 1: Preparation
Make sure you have all the tools and parts you need at hand. This includes the new LED indicators, resistors (with e-test mark), wrench and insulating tape.
Step 2: Remove old indicators
Switch off the ignition of your Kawasaki. Remove the cover of the turn signals and loosen the screws to dismantle the old indicators. Carefully separate the electrical connections.
Step 3: Mount new indicators
Place the new LED indicators in the places provided. Attach them with the screws supplied and tighten them, but do not overlook them.
Step 4: Install resistance
Install the resistances near the new turn signals. These are necessary to correctly adjust the flashing frequency. Connect the resistors according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Step 5: Connect electrics
Connect the electrical cables of the new turn signals to the motorcycle system. Make sure to consider the polarity and secure the connections with insulating tape.
Step 6: Test and completion
Turn on the ignition and test the new turn signals. Check whether all functions work properly. Close the covers again and make sure that everything sits firmly.
Question 1: Why do I need resistance for LED blinkers?
Resistance is necessary to adapt the flashing frequency of the LED blinkers, since they have a lower power compared to conventional light bulbs.
Question 2: Where can I find the right resistance?
The recommended resistances can be found in the instructions of your LED blinkers or at the dealer where you bought the indicators. Make sure you wear the e-test mark.
