    Sharing this hoping I have overlooked something simple.

    The horn on my RVF stopped working so replaced the horn but still not working. So I ordered up a new switch gear (wanted to renew anyway so seemed like a good opportunity) connected the new switch up and everything works, including the horn but the front left hand indicator stays on.

    If the indicators are used either left or right they work fine but as soon as indication is cancelled front left stayed on. Refitted the old switch all good (apart from the horn not working again). So I assumed faulty switch.

    Just tried the second new switch and exactly the same, front left hand indicator on. Refitted the old one and all fine.

    Any ideas :confused:

    Bad earth?

    Two control wires crushed and shorting between them where the insulation has been cut through?
