Am I a happy camper or what! Both deuces now have headlights, turn signals and flashers going!

Thanks to Bjorn for writing so many helpful posts and his persona encouragement to me.

Don't forget to check those grounds!

OK, I thought I was going insane. Intermittent flash and turn signals on the new deuce. So, I go to working on all the grounds. New internal/external star washers on the grounds for the marker lights, rear tail lights. Still no go. Ground on flasher cleaned and two internal/external star washers put on. No go. Decided that it has to be in the ground from the marker light guard to the fender. So, I remove all the bolts, but one, sand the surface of the fender and marker light guard and put in new nuts and bolts with internal/external star washers on all but two holes. The one bolt I could not get out will have to be cut out. This was yesterday evening and it was hot and getting late. Still no go.

I had a parade today and got up early to clean the windows and such. I decided to go ahead and put in a new bolt, nut and internal/external star washer into that empty hole, just in case. BINGO! :D :D :D :D

Now, all I have to worry about is the horn, the ignition switch and tachometer etc, etc, etc, etc
