Default 05 turn signal problems

Alright I posted a little about this before but am now wondering if someone can either point me in the right direction or give me some insight. I have been looking and cant seem to locate the problem with my turn signals. First off neither of the front signals work they are both aftermarket flush mounts but neither work at all and are both what looks to be wired correctly. Next is the aftermarket flush mount rear exhaust light. When I go left and use that signal the left side will light up yellow but only stay yellow and will not blink. The right on the other hand does not work at all. I didnt put either of these on my self so I have no idea what they did. Any advice would be great, thanks.

I recommend new lights all the way around, and check for 12 volts at theturn signal wires in the front. When there is no load on the stock flasher/turn signal relay, the LED will stay on solid like that. It is actully blinking too fast to see.

Okay but why will the left side of the light light up and the right not? Possibly because the entire light is shot? Also where would you reccomend to get some lights for a decent price and what should I do if there is no load on the flasher relay? Thanks!!!

Well I have Protons on the front, and Rizomas on the back. The protons are supposed to be internally loaded, and the Rizomas come with a resistor box, so I get a somewhat fast blink rate. If you need to, you can add a turn signal resisitor to each turn signal to slow the blink rate, or on some of our bikes, you can install a turn signal relay that will perform the same task as adding resistors. I don't know if you can just install a plug and play relay on 06 and older 600RR's, maybe someone else will chime in.
