I did a quick search and didn't come up with any hits for this, so here goes...

I put the ChromeGlow fork wrap front signals on my Striker today, and am running into some weird behavior.

I picked up the white/amber version, and wired the right turn signal up easily enough. It has the white LEDs on for running lights, then when the turn signal is activated, the white LEDs turn off and the amber LEDs start blinking.

The oddness is when I hooked up the left signal. When the left turn signal is activated, it toggles the white and amber lights back and forth, instead of turning the white LEDs off for the duration of the turn signal.

At first, I thought I must've wired them wrong, and tried a couple of different alternatives. It did the same thing no matter how I had it set up.

I decided to hook the factory signal back to the harness to see if it behaved differently from right to left signals, but it didn't. They both worked the same.

Anyone heard of this?

I'm wondering if they sent me two different Drugz circuits... maybe?

I had that same problem when I hook up the Yamaha led passing light's. I installed a load equalizer and it went away.

Yeah, called them today and he immediately suggested the load equalizer. Odd that it would have that effect, but there ya go. He also wanted me to make sure I had it wired correctly.

I seem to recall reading a thread that mentioned a $15 auto-parts-store-alternative to the $60 equalizer from Chrome Glow. Gotta go find that thread again.
