Intigrated Tail Light Help, Wiring mess ups
I am having some problems with this myself.... The blinker wires coming out of the tail light are yellow. I connect one to my blue blinker wire, and one to my orange blinker wire. Then the 3 wire brake light wires i connected black to black, green to green, and green/yellow to red.... Nothing works, when i turn my blinkers on I hear the clicking, but no blinking, and no brake lights??? what am i doing wrong?
and I was not running through the resistors ... could this be the problem? If anyone has pictures this would be amazing... thank you guys

Doubt it. They probably burnt up from being wired wrong. The resistors only serve to add and extra load to the circuit (since LED blinkers draw less current than standard incadescent bulbs) to slow the blink rate down. The blinker flasher speed is dependant on circuit current.

I got my integrated tail today. You need to run Black to green. Yellow to Black. red to green/yellow and the turns you have right.
Although mine came with an adapter that made it easy. except they had the wires bent in the wrong positions when I got it from them (I also had to cut it down so I could snap the bulb holder in)

Yoooo thanks a lot guys, esp mk2mike ! you're pics are awesome and helped a great deal. I have one problem though (if anyone is still listening). The blinkers and BRAKE light work just fine but for some reason I don't have just a regular old tail light. The light that's just on when the bike is on. Am I missing a wire connection somewhere?
Below are some pics of how to wire the brake light and the blinkers
