I am not understanding what you are saying. You are posting partial sentences only.

From what I gather, both your left and right turn signals are flashing at the same time? Is that correct? If so, would guess that you have a short between the wires that go to each side.

Try to repost what you are asking so that we can understand what is going on.

Thanks.
You might also check your turn signal relay to make sure the wires are hooked up correctly and that there are no cracks in the relay housing which could cause a short. If bad, they can be replaced for about $35 on Ebay.

Hi, I apologize for any confusion, I don’t know how this website works but I did not have any problems typing sentences and I can’t even figure out how to look at my post , doing this all on my phone , but since I’m posting again I might as well try explaining again : my signal lights are both flashing simultaneously, and sometimes when I turn the signal light switch the signal lights do not respond at all ... I checked connections with the current meter and everything seems okay , the relay is my last option to try and replace , thank you for advice

You might also get some electrical contact cleaner and spray it into the handlebar switch. There might be some crud in there. Try to avoid taking it apart as it can be a little intimidating to some, not knowing your mechanical ability. Hope my advice helps.

Let us know how it all turned out when you get it resolved. That way, we all learn something.

Hi ��*♀️ so I had the bike oil change and had it running for a while and the signal lights are doing their job... apparently sometimes bikes that been sitting too long just need a good run. I have not ride it on the street yet as I’m still trying to find fair insurance quote etc.. so far bike sounds great!
Thank you!
