Flashing light problem

[Poyut]

Hello, i bought my XS this summer and im trying to fix it. I came into a right flashing light issue.

Actually all flasher work good except de right front one. It don't light up

I tried switching light bulbs but it wasnt the problem. Also i think the previous owner did some weird wiring so i tried to reconnect the wire as displayed in the electrical diagram.

I also check with a multimeter if i get any juice in the light bulb connector and yes i get some when flashing right.

So at this point i think of a ground issue, but i dont know where and how.

What do you guys think ?

Hi poyut, welcome to the board. swap the connectors over in the headlight to see if it flashes on the left switch.

one could get the dark brown wire (ch) mixed up with the black earth wire? and short it out.

Yes, easily done. I had to look more than once to be sure I had the right wire there. Easy to mistake it for another black wire.
