Well as many of you may know, I installed flushmount LED signals as well as an Ermax Undertail with LED signals. Anyone who has done this knows that the flash rate is like 3x faster after you do this if you don't insert some resistance and/or a new relay in the circuit.
My undertail came with a new LED Relay and I finally got around to installing it. So, I figured the easiest way to go about doing this was to simply replace the stock relay with the new one.
The relay is located under the left, front fairing, right next to the fuel tank, it is (right here), thanks Boneman.
Next step was to remove the old relay, there are two wires attached one to the battery and one to the signal switch, the connectors on the original relay are smaller than on the new relay so I had to cut them and add new connectors. In addition the new relay needs to be grounded so I needed to run a ground to the battery (here):
Now that I had the ground it was time to attach the wiring; Black is my new ground, connects to the - on the relay; Brown w/Green stripe is positive, connects to + on the relay, Brown w/Yellow stripe goes to signal switch and connects to the L on the relay (see below):
Here is the new relay in position:
Took about 30 minutes and now all six LED Signals are blinking at the DOT approved rate. Thank you to the forum and Boneman for the help and info
