    anyone else have no blinkers after washing their Husqvarna? after a wash the blinkers light up solid only. after drying out they do flash again. I took my te 310 apart and dielectric greased everything any other tips?

    They say....(who every they are...) You are suppose to put a plastic bag over your instrument cluster, TPS and your exhaust before washing your bike. Might want to watch getting water into the switch itself too.
    First time I washed my 510 it did the same thing. :cheers:

    Same here. I'm just a little more careful when washing. The flasher is back by the battery I think. I think the idea is to protect with the bags and so forth, then blow it off pretty thoroughly. Or wait a day or two and it might dry itself out.

    My 510 did that when the flasher relay failed. The 510 flasher relay was a little black box with a white/clear plug in it. The plug had gotten tweaked somehow and wasn't always making contact. I replaced it with a relay from Cycle Gear and all was well. You might check that. It was behind the headlight somewhere.

    On the 09's- the blinker relay is by the battery on the left side by the main power fuses... it is not a box but a 2/5" by 1.5" by 1.5" solid state unit (not mechanical).
  6. Not relay related but ... I add a piece of self vulcanizing electrical tape around each turn signal body / lense junction to keep dirt and water out.
