Step 1: Preparation
Make sure you have all the required tools and materials ready: new LED indicators, resistors, wrenches and a cross -slot screwdriver.
Step 2: Securing the battery
Before you start working, separate the battery to avoid short circuits. First remove the minus cable.
Step 3: Remove the old indicators
Screw the old indicators and separate the electrical connections. Make sure not to damage the cables.
Step 4: Installation of the new indicators
Attach the new LED indicators to the intended area and connect the electrical connections. Make sure that the connection is firmly sitting.
Step 5: Connection of the resistances
To let the turn signals work properly, connect the supplied resistors. These prevent the indicators from flashing too quickly.
Step 6: final examination
Connect the battery again and test the new turn signals. Make sure that you flash evenly and function correctly.
How long do LED turn signals last?
LED blinkers usually have a longer lifespan than conventional incandescent lamps, often up to 50,000 hours.
Can I omit the resistance?
It is not recommended to omit the resistors, as this can lead to a quick flashing of the LED indicators and could affect the electronics of the motorcycle.
