integrated tail light turn signal problem
Hey guys, so i installed the integrated tail light led ones. and basically the brake light works and standby light works, but when i plug the right and left signal into the stock harness for the turn signals it turns off the brake light and standby light and instead lights up yellow signal lights. the signals lights arent flashing there just illuminated. It basically bypasses the red brake lights which turns them off and lights up the yellow signal lights. This only happens when i try to plug in the turn signal lights to the stock turn signal harness on the bike. I know my left and right turn signals are awlays on when i ride, is this the problem? if so how can i fix that? i hope im making sense as its very hard to describe....
any help woudl be great thanks!
okay so yeah i figured out my turn signals run as a running light as well with the same wire. How can i change them to only do turn signal? Everything does look stock and the connectors dont seem to be changed so im confused..

yeah so mine are running lights which i found it to be weird. so i asked a shop they said i need my front signals to be a 3 wire one or something instead of 2? make sense to anyone? i wasnt really sure so wehn i got home i was looking it up but didnt find much on it.
the front turning lights are your running lights as well, so it needs 3 wires for that. one for running lights, one for turning lights and ground wire.
your rear turn signals only need two wires since they should be only turn signals.
this might help a bit

this is only if you have two wire on the front.
but all this doesnt change the fact that your rear stays on all the time.
so make sure you have 2 wire on the rear. and your are plugging it to the right one. it should have current going through only when the blinker is in use.

okay thanks scorpian. when i was installing it, i plugged the blinker turn signal wires into the stock turn signal socket and it ran the the turn signal light like a running light and turned off the back brake running light. So in that one wire, it basically runs the turn signal light and turn signal when i flip the switch.
