Harzard flashers glitch

[Etienne]

1. Any idea why my front right indicator does not work when switching hazard lights on? I've got a 2010 model and it came standard with hazards. The turn signal indicator works perfectly, but only doesn't flash with the hazards. All three other lights flash normally. I've wiggled some wires, but no luck there. Not a train smash, though. I only need hazards to the rear anyway. Can't see the purpose of the front ones on a bike in any case...
2. Also, sometimes (intermittedly and quite seldom, though), after starting up, my headlights and indicators does not work. I correct this by switching the ignition off and on again to wake them up. Also not a train smash and I can live with it. I've gotten into the habit of checking my indicators when starting up, so it probably is a unintended safety feature now...

Anyone with a quick fix tip, perhaps?

Are you sure your 2010 came from the factory equipped with 4 way flashers ? In the USA I don’t think 4 way flashers were standard equipment until 2014 when they also added cruise control and a newly improved instrument cluster.

Yep, EU Gen1 bikes came with hazard lights, via a dedicated button on the left switchgear.

Has the headlight wiring update been done? Were they recalled over there?

Sounds like a dirty hazard and or ignition switch. Try flushing out the contacts with some plastic safe contact cleaner.
