Hi all,

As some of you may remember, I have been rebuilding my 99IS after an accident a couple of years ago.(diesel spill on rode)

Many of my questions have been answered in this forum, I have been able to answer a couple as well. I am vert grateful to this community of Valkyrie Riders.

My wife and I finally got out for a ride though Utah earlier in May this year (3500miles).
Since then I have been doing some additional wiring. I'm almost complete but I need two sets of schematics that I have seen/used.

1. I'd like to wire the Trunk lights to work as signals and four way flashers. I've seen the diagrams, I just can't find them again.

2. I have a blinker Buddy. I tore out the wiring when I did my rebuild. I remember seeing a wiring diagram that included a relay to pause the unit when the brakes are applied. Just wanting to put this smart option back.




I have gone from here last November:

From here:




To here:



A New Main Grill & Fork Covers.




Blue accent lights everywhere
All the blue blew a 2A fuse, ccurrently good with a 5A. (approx 200 blue LEDs in strips)

Signal




Brake light in Pod - Nicely visible!




Signal Light in Pod - The Amber strips need to be brighter, there not bad, but the Blue and Red are much brighter.




Thanks again to everyone who contributes.

Best regards,

Glenn Schentag

Thanks Chrise,

Unfortunately, that's not it. I was able to find those.
The schematics I'm looking for show several different configurations.
The diagrams show the real taillights on the Interstate flashing or blinking. The look similar to the rattlebars drawings, but with the addition of all the lights affected. I believe there are four versions, some require modifying the running lights sockets for 1158 dual filament bulbs..

Thanks again,

Glenn
