Cbr900rr indicators

Indicators are not working properly. They seem to make a fast clicking sound and eventually they come on, but, it takes a while and sometimes they don't work at all. Any ideas please

Fast clicking is an indication that not enough current is being drawn by the bulbs in the circuit. Either by a bulb that is burnt out, or having installed LED lights, which draw less power.

All 4 bulbs are ok. The indicators were working fine, then just stopped. Checked the bulbs they are ok. Just starts clicking fast then they come on eventually?

You still haven't said what type of bulbs they are. LED or Incandescent ? What it's clicking fast, are both the front, rear and gage cluster turn indicator lights coming on?

Sorry, they are normal bulbs, not LED.
The clicking is very fast, not loud. Then then indicators work both front and rear on either side. However, the left hand side occasionally doesn't come on at all ?

What's the history on the bike? Did they ever blink at what you would say is a normal rate? What changes have occurred since they did?

if one of the bulbs has a poor connection, then the blinking is fast. When the bulbs light up, are they fully bright? Look the same on all corners of the bike?
