Every one but me must be aware of these, but thought on the chance they were not known about I am posting about a replacement unit for the turn signal relay system. It replaces the OEM relay the makes the light go into fast mode when you have both incandescent and LED lights on your bike.

The only thing that I was aware of is the expensive units from places like Kuryakan that cost a fortune and takes two of them to make the units go back to regular pace flashing.

The part that I found is from Tucker Rocky and is called a "Rumble Concept LED"
P/N 206754 at a cost of $28.95
Direct replacement unit for turn signal relays on Shadows (Honda in general)!

Plug it in and all is well again, no fast flash on the directionals.
Takes care of right and left with just one unit!

Update on new part. Installed and works as advertised, well satisfied and I highly recommend it for anyone installing LED bulbs in their directional system.

Same remedy for $9 at your local AutoZone, O'Reilly's, etc...
FL-32 electronic flasher relay. LED approved, works with any combination of bulb, mini-bulb, or LED. Even works when a bulb is blown. Also works on up to 8 signals I believe.

Apologies RB. Didn't see you had this problem or would have chimed in sooner.

P.s. The make of relay is either Blazer or Tridon (they both make a #32) and is sometimes labeled as a Hvy Duty Truck Flasher.

No problem HitCat, I found several different electronic relays but none of them had the weird OEM 3 pin flat configuration so it could just be plugged in.
The one that I bought solved the pin problem, but at a price!

Most relays are in the familiar "L" shape configuration but mine is three in a row like this - - - There are some that are similar but the 3 pins are like this I I I .

Seems like everything on the damned Phantom is "Unique" to it alone. The relay is just one of many!

I even went to an electronic supplier to find an electronic relay that had the Phantom plug configuration so I could have a plug-in electronic type relay that would work....no luck!

I will check out the #32 relay to see if it will fit. If it does I'm going to jump up and down in frustration and go out in the garden and eat worms! LOL!

The FL-32 is a 2-prong. They also have the same relay in a 3 prong config but don't know the model # off the cuff. The 3rd prong is a ground and can be bypassed at the connector and a 2-prong relay used with no issue. Be relatively simple to make short jumpers with compatible male & female ends to avoid having to cut the connector off and splice wires directly. It's all good. I just like to tinker when possible.

Oh well, it just means that I have pissed off more money on this money pit! :laugh4:

Out to the garden to eat worms!:cry:

Maybe someone will learn from my mistake and your recommendations!
