[J-T]

What bike?

 

[mike in idaho]

Turn signal buzzer.

1979 cm400a. where does it attach?

 

[longdistancerider]

You can attach it anywhere you like. It was never a part of these models.

 

[Carnivorous Chicken]

Screw it into the garbage can unless you like being annoyed?

I really think it is about time that signal buzzers were made compulsory for bikes with indicators. So many times have I ridden for miles behind a bike indicating a turn and dreading to see a driver believe it and pull out in front of him.

 

[Skelee]

If i want re remove it. i cut the wire and splice them together?

If the PO cut the harness to install inline then yes, if they added a circuit to the flasher then no.

Can't make out the wiring. For some reason your photo won't open in a new tab. But I doubt that it would be connected in series. If it is a turn signal buzzer, one wire should go to the light blue/white wire and the other to the orange/white wire. Just disconnect the wires. Download the FSM. PM sent. Page 342 has a color wiring diagram for your model.

Oh, the cacophony. Imagine a ride with a dozen or so bikes, chirping away at a stoplight like cicadas. Next time, tell that arse his blinkers are on and be done with it!

Clearly Mr. C Chicken has never seen properly installed warning sounders. If wired correctly they should be muted if the clutch is pulled in and/or the bike in neutral

 

[Skelee]

it turns off if you hit the rear brake. i straped it just below the headlight. its funny people look around in thier cars when they hear it.

 

[mike in idaho]

That's right they look around and see you, then they don't run you over when the light changes.

 

[Rod Fryatt]

I'm going to fit one in my car, I find I'm getting forgetful in old age

 

[dtsmjr8dan]

I kept leaving mine on and got tired of being reminded by fellow motorists at a light...lol. I installed one with a 'beeper' similar sound that a large truck makes in reverse.
