HELP! Integrated Tail light
I am new to motorcycles, but have done several projects on my car. I got myself stuck and am hoping you guys can help. I bought an integrated tail light, and when I was installing it I accidentally blew a fuse for the gauges and running lights. I continued to wire everything up, tested it, and everything worked as it should (except for the running light). I replaced the fuse that I blew and now the tail light is all messed up. The running light is all yellow, and the blinkers flash red/yellow. And the brake light doesnt work at all. I plugged in the stock brake light and it works fine. I removed the fuse that i blew the first time, and everything works again (except for running light).
The person that owned the bike before me installed flush mount front turn signals, but they work fine even when I remove that fuse so i didnt think that would be the issue. HELP! Thank you.

i'm no expert by any mean, but sounds to me like:
1/ u didnt mixed up the running and signals light wiring in the integrated tail-light (check your wiring)
2/ if its a cheap $20 integrated tail-light from china, it could be a defect unit with some wires shorted together inside it (replace it or test each wire individually straight from the battery)
3/ cheap you bikes wiring from handle switch to fusebox, to flashing relay to the signals, PO might've missed with wiring somehow
