Hi guys

New member with a bit of an issue...

05 GTS which has working but fast flashing rear turn signals, but nothing at the front.

I've changed the bulbs.
I've taken the leg shield off for a quick look at the wiring and nothing obvious.
I've ordered a flasher unit, but no idea where it is.

Anything else obvious I've overlooked?

I appreciate any help.

Have any of the bulbs been replaced with LEDs?

What you describe looks like a problem with mass connection in the circuit of the blinkers.
Was it always like that?

in front of your left knee

also check out the workshop manual and wiring diagram at
https://manuals.wotmeworry.org.uk/Vespa/GTS250/

note: careful on the wiring diagram, not only are versions of the 250 with and without abs but might be other generational and regional differences.

Thanks boys.

No idea what it's been like as I've just brought it after 5 years of sitting in a barn!
Could some kind soul also point me in the direction of the earth points?[img][/img]

Just in case it helps anyone, you can indeed cut into the alarm pre wiring and take the live feed from there, I've ran an earth directly to the battery.
