I got these 3 way LEDs

http://www.demonscycle.com/Shop/Control/Product/fp/vpid/2860049/vpcsid/0/SFV/31995

I can get the running lights and the blinkers to work but wen adding my brake light line into the mix i can't figure it out. What am I missing? Do i need some sort of relay/power splitter?


Thumbs Up!

More info required... what do the instructions say... what do the lights do when you connect them etc etc?

haha...thats my problem. the didn't come with instructions. they have a blue (brake) red (running) black (ground) on my bike is the same way but in addition I have 2 more blacks for my signal ground and 2 greens (left and right signal) the only way i get signals is if i hook the bike green and blue to the parts blue but, seeing that there is only one blue bike wire. if i hook both up i turn on a signal they both clink at the same time. what do i need to separate the power signals?

On the bike, the right rear signal wire is Green/Blue and the left rear signal wire is Green/red. The green wires from your add on lights need to be hooked to these wires in their respective positions for the turn signals to work. The blue wire should be for brake light only and the red for running lights only.
Not sure I understand your problem but does this help?

I'm thinking you'd like your brake light power to also light up your rear directional signals?

The factory wiring doesn't allow for the above without wiring modifications made both upstream & downstream of the signal light switch on the handle bars.

Then there is the issue of splitting out the brake light power from the front directional lamps, and also how to make the directional light signal take priority over the brake light signal.

Not impossible, but it will take some time to do.
If you can find a schematic for a Signal Stat 900 controller, it should show how this can be accomplished.
