sequential motorcycle turn signal not working
Hey - not all of us :-) Just don't post, since this place turned into a ghost town.
And I'm pretty sure my advice from 8 yrs ago is still valid. It needs a constant triggered input, not a on-off-on that a flasher relay puts out.
If you tapped off of the trigger wire coming out of the turn signal switch, but before it gets to the flasher, you could run that 12v+ back to these and they would work as intended until you turned the turn signal switch off manually. If you don't have stock style turn signals at all, you could probably just pull the flasher relay and jumper across the contacts and then use the factory wiring.

all sorted, just take out the relay and short the connector. LED sequential works a treat

so my flasher is on the lead wire coming into the signal switch. I’m running sequential signal lights on the front and LED on the rear. So if I understand correctly I could what a flasher on each side for the rear output wires for the rear. I could then connect the sequential lines to the output wire ahead of the flasher. Of course I would have to remove the flasher on the feed line so the output would be constant. Does that sound like it would work to you?

As a noob in electrical stuff, that kind of frustration. Thank you so much
