Flasher relay 07 TE-450

I finally found out why the flashers aren't working....I somehow lost the relay that is bolted to the top triple clamp.

Does anyone have a source for these? I have changed to LEDs, is there a flasher relay that would limit the voltage to have the flashers blink at a normal rate?

I have gotten the relay at an automotive store. Cycle gear cary's them. I ordered one off here: http://www.electrosport.com/products/product-detail-2027.php as they make them specifically for LED's and pretty rugged. The OEM one is flat and most of the aftermarket ones are more like a cube. I just zip-tie it to the harness and frame.

Thanks Blake. Did you get a 2 wire or a 3 wire relay? How much did it cost? It looks like there is only two wires for the stock unit. Do you know if there a specific wire that needs to go to positive or negative?

I thought I read somewhere that some relays do not allow the indicator light to flash. Does your indicator work?

I hope this one will work.

Once I get it installed I will update this topic.

Good find, that unit looks nice.

I just installed the Electrosport unit mentioned above. I've had it for months but have never got around to installing.

Let us know how that one works.

I just tried my bike with this relay in and it won't flash at all. Blinkers come on steady.

Check out this pdf....I may run into the same problem.

They say that in some rare instances that a load equilizer will need to be installed.

Strike my last post. I swapped the wires and it works. The dash indicator doesn't flash, like it's got a burned out bulb, but they do flash at a normal rate.

I read all that about the one you found, but I still like it better.

My electrosport one works great and only has 2 leads. Let me know if the one you got works out. The one I at cycle gear I got while making a Dual Sport kit for another bike and it has 3 leads. I placed it after the switch. I'm not sure if any others than the electrosport work on the Husky.

What wire went to positive and negative? It woud suck to blow this 20 buck gizmo trying to hook it up.

I am worried about my turn indicator lamp not working also. I think I read that there needs to be a load (higher Volt) in order to make the blinker on the dash work. You might try using one of the OEM blinkers and see if the dash indicator works with it.

I can't tell which post is which. There are no marking that I can see, so I didn't think it would matter which way I hooked it up.

The flasher relay from CustomLED works great. It flashes at a normal rate.

Thanks for all the help!

Just bought an SMR450, and I want to swap out the old flashers for LEDs. Can anyone tell me where the old flasher relay is, and how to swap it out for the new one?
