XTC turn signals

[lost1wing]

I have a question for those who have the ETC turn signal kit installed. Today was my first night ride and I noticed that the turn signal switch rocker does not illuminate with the headlights on. Is it supposed to light up? I don't recall tapping into the headlight circuit to make this happen so I'm guessing it is not supposed to light up. Sure would be nice though.

Mine does not either, others have told me there’s did.. haven’t dug into it to see why it’s not.

I was hoping the darn light would be lit with the lights on. When it is dark, you can't see the switch to activate it. I know it is there, because of the void of light. I may attempt to either light the dash or install a small led in the switch.

Got it. I moved the switches around so the turn in now in the lowest spot close to the door. I actually am contemplating putting a very low power led above the switches.

Lost1wing- what is that setup?

Interior light, hazard, turn signal

Exterior light bar, wipers, soon to be washer fluid

My reason for the post is that the XTC turn signal switch does not illuminate with the headlights. I may add a dash bezel light.

Mine is lit up all the time, even when no key in the ignition. I have not noticed any problem with the battery...its at my cabin and occasionally I will go three weeks between uses. I bought my Roxor (2023 All Weather) used with140 miles on it and the system was already installed. Not sure I'm smart enough to figure out the power supply but I'll be happy to look at it this weekend when I'm there if it will help.

It is definitely hooked up wrong. It should be hooked up to an ignition circuit and not a battery hot connection.

Thanks! I'll look into it.
