Default Help with integrated taillight

I received my motodynamics integrated sequential tail light and installed it today. After installing the blinkers are not in sequence the whole side flashes and the brake light does not work at all. The previous owner installed flush mount led blinkers in front if that has anything to do with it. Any suggestions?

Do you have a wiring diagram for the taillight? Ive never heard of anything wired in front of the taillight affecting the pattern. I have a clear alt. sequential light and it works great. as far as the brake light not working, how did you attach the wires to the bikes loom?

I got it figured out. I just had to wire resistors in on the front LEDs and disable the running lights to the front flush mounts. The tail light is super bright and really cleaned up the look of the bike. Im very satisfied with it so far.

You could have also installed an electric turn signal flasher,, much easier..

Congrats on the motodynamic tail light I have one as well, my sequentials don't work because I have protons up front with no resistors, so they just blink normally for the signals. I'm too lazy to pull the front fairing as of now, but I do love the sequential flash pattern so I might later on. Also I think they are easier for cars to actually see which blinker is on left or right with the seq. flash pattern.
