    On my 1977 t140v my right rear turn signal quits when I turn the handlebars to the right.

    Firstly I would check the wiring, is it taut or showing damage or loose connection. Check at bulb holder too, is earth clean and connectors too, clean and spray with wd40.
    Can't be much really.

    @Eric27 Yes i would try for taut wiring. Also check the bulb holder as i have seen them to lose contact. What i do is dismantle the centre bulb holder and stretch the spring in there just to give a better hold.

    Thanks
    I think it must be somewhere in the wiring as it’s the rear light that is the issue
