    I had asimilar problem recently on my 2010 wideglide the left hand indicators wouldnt work and when they did they would not cancel. This occurred after the bike spent a couple of nights outside in some bad weather and condensation got in everything even the speedo about a week later it seemed to fix itself (dryed out)
    Just a possibility

    Hey Jungle. Just had a similar problem mate. Check your fuses. My tail light bulb was broken, condensation entered the actual housing in heavy rain and must have shorted. Fixed that and the fuse stopped blowing allowing my blinkers to work.

     found the problem , the tail light and rear blinker wiring is situated under thr centre of the guard ,hit a decent pothole, cattle grid , etc the tyre has been making contact with the wiring and basicly fucked it !so we rewired it and shifed it to the side, hopefully solving the problem,thanks for the replies
