FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
INSTALLATION:
Q: Where is the turn signal relay on my bike? I can’t find it.
A: Please refer to your Owner’s Manual or the Wiring Diagram of your bike.
There are too many variations to cover. The relay could be integrated with
kickstand interlock or the dash circuit board. It could be hidden under the
gas tank or behind the dash.
When possible, for more popular models, we have identified the location in
this Guide.
Q: I have 3-pin socket on the bike but only two pins are used. Do I need to
install the 3
rd
pin?
A: Yes, the 3
rd
pin with a ground wire is supplied in the SM-3 package. It is
required for the circuit to work properly.
Q: I have installed the signalMinder but it won’t flash, nothing comes on.
What do I do?
A: If your signalMinder came with a ground wire, it must be attached firmly
to a good ground location. Make sure the spot you have chosen is free of
paint, doesn’t have any plastic washers etc. It should be a clean metal
surface of the chassis or the use the negative post of the battery.
Q: My signalMinder plugs in properly and I have attached the ground wire
but it won’t start the flashing. It’s stuck ON. What’s wrong?
A: The polarity of the socket on the bike may be reversed. Look at the
diagram of the socket – top left corner of the page – and compare. If you
have to switch them, use a jeweler’s screwdriver to release the pins.
Q: signalMinder is different size and shape from the original flasher. How
do I mount it?
A: You can leave the original flasher in its holder. Find a suitable location
nearby and use the Velcro pad supplied to attach the unit.
Q: I have an 8-pin relay next to the fuses but I received a signalMinder
without any matching plug. How do I hook it up?
A: The SM-3SV unit you received requires one wire splice. The original
relay stays in place. Follow the instructions on page-13
