Led lights

I installed some Kuryakan razor eye led front and rear lights on my bike after I removed the stock front and rear turn signals and when I hit the turn signal all the turnsignals turn on such as in a four way flasher situation. What did I do wrong?

Did you install load equalizers? If not that is your issue.

If they are flashing fast, what TipsyTed said is probably correct. If they are flashing at normal speed, just all 4 at once, you may need to install diodes to prevent crossover current. If they are flashing fast and all 4, then both fixes may be needed.

Sounds like you need a diode. Had the same be issue on my V2K. Here is a write up on the installation for the VN2000, should be a similar procedure.

Thank you. I will get the diode kit and see what happens.

TipsyTed, did you try it with the bike running? When I first did mine, I just tried them out with the switch on, and they flashed like 4 ways. I started the bike, and they worked fine. It's several years later, and it still does like that.
