Default keep blowing turn signal, stop, horn fuse

I took all my plastic off to clean all the dirt and grime underneath. I also purchased HID lights for the headlights and install them. I didn't splice into any wires. Everything work correctly before I did all of this. Now, when I turn my right turn signal switch on it pops that 10 amp fuse and cuts my headlights and brakelight out, in addition to my turn signals not working (front and back). Only when I turn the right turn signal on. If I turn my left on everything works as advertised. Its the weirdest thing. I looked at the schematic and can't really see a common ground. If anyone has experienced something like this please help!!!

My issue was cheap aftermarket turn signals. My right flush mount in the front was jacked up. The wire connecting to it was slightly pulled out and exposed. The ground and power wires were touching each other causing the fuse to blow. I also noticed before the fuse actually blew, my headlight would blink when I activated my right turn signal. So that was another symptom. If that’s not your problem your gonna have to take off some of your plastics and investigate the whole harness for damage (pinched, kinks, exposure, etc). It might help to get a hold of your bikes schematic to trace the wires that go to that particular fuse. Anyway, be patient. You’ll find it eventually. Good luck...

Hey man Thanks yea i think thats my problem the cheap aftermarket signals I put them on two days before it happened. I have not used the signal since I realized it blows it out and my bikes been running fine. I just use my hands if anything. But I kept them on because I like them as running lights.. Thanks.

Probably found it 10 years ago.

Replace your bulbs and check your wiring for a short to ground on that side.
