1978 Honda CB400T - Fast Blinker

#1 Unread post by pheff »

Hi All,

I am looking for some assistance with a recently acquired CB400T.

As the RPM's increase, the speed of the blinker increases as well. The brake light and headlight are fine.
Does this lead to suspicion of the regulator or the blinker module?

I am about to test components but thought somebody would know where to start.

Thanks.

I would think blinker module as the headlight/brake light is ok. Check the bulbs for LED lamps in them.

Get a DVM (digital volt meter) and take a reading from your blinker module to ground.
People say I'm stupid and apathetic. I don't know what that means, and I don't care.

That's what I was thinking. I'll start working on it this weekend.

Thanks,
