    Default Turn Signel Lever, left

    Has anyone had to repair the lever? Something came loose in there and it doesn't attivate the left turn. Hoping I can repair this. 2012 RT SE5

    Please keep us posted on your attempts and successes at opening the left signal module.
    I have tried and found the unit to be sealed and the internals to not be accessible.
    Others have been able to access the PTT switch and make modifications so I trust
    the unit can be opened just not successfully by me.
    Good Luck, David C.

    You might try just excising it a little. I have had to do that with mine. I take the mirror off and unplug it and then plug it back in making sure the connections are clean and then work the handlebar switch back and forth a hundred times so it cleans itself and makes good contact. I would try that first. I have had that issue and it cleared up by doing this. I have a 2012 RTL SE5

    I just replaced mine on my 2013 rt se5. It is a sealed unit, no way to replace or repair dir switch. I found one on ebay for $44.00. A little work to replace though. My old one still works, but I had to always push in while turn on left directional.

    Mine is beginning to fail too. I'm glad to hear that the switch can be purchased separately and I won't have to change the whole left housing.
    Whys is it only the left one failing? Do we pull too hard on it?

    I would probably like to keep it for a spare. Keep tabs on Ebay, I'm sure more will show up.
