How to Fix Hazard Light

How to Fix Hazard Light

Driving a motorcycle with a faulty hazard light is frustrating and makes you look like you don’t have vibes, not only that sometimes the hazard light helps to indicate that you are going forward and it is necessary especially when you are in a T junction or approaching a roundabout. Here are some ways on how to fix your hazard Light

Check The Flasher:

If you notice that none of the hazard lights is working in this case you should check your flasher, as it is the flasher that supplies current to the switch so that when you turn on the switch it then sends current to the hazard light.

Some common color codes to know when checking hazard lights include:

The black wire: The black wire gives the flasher current to send to the switch

The Milk Colure Wire: After receiving current from the black wire, the flasher then breaks the current down to be on and off that is how the trafficator light is not a stable light like the headlight, it’s the work of the flasher, the flasher sends the current through the milk colure wire to the switch

The Blue Wire: This indicates the right side of the trafficator

The Orange Wire: this indicates the left side of the trafficator

The Green Wire: the negative wire.

Note: if the complete four hazard lights are not working correctly then you should check the bulb or landholder

Check the hazard light switch

when the switch is faulty the trafficator may not function well, for a normal working switch, when it’s turned on, it sends current to blue and orange wire from the milk color wire. That is the work of the double trafficator switch and that’s what makes the double trafficator/hazard light work.
