    Hi I've been trying to locate the turn signal / flasher relay on my 2014 America :confused:? I've looked in the usual places behind the side panel, under the seat etc. So I've come to the conclusion the only other place it can be under is the fuel tank, if someone could be so kind and just verify that please.....:)
    I have a small audible alarm which I want to connect to the relay, it's designed to warn me when the flashers are in use...:cool:. As I'm forever forgetting to cancel them :eek: probably due to owning several Harleys over the years all of which had self cancelling flashers. I purchased two of these little alarms one which I have already installed onto my 2015 Newchurch, works a treat the only thing I had to do was cover half of the hole the sound exits from because I felt it was a bit on the loud side, that did the trick toned it down a bit.....:rolleyes:
    Thank you...

    @Kernow Sure one of the wise ones will be along soon. Have you considered the self cancelling unit available.

    Yeah thanks for the reply Joe, I did some further searching and as I thought there are a line of relays under the tank, (R/H side) accessible simply by raising the rear end of the tank a few inches and inserting a choc to keep it there. Unfortunately the flasher relay on my America is different to my Newchurch in that the Newchurch only had 2x wires whereas the America has 3x wires. So I couldn't get the small alarm to work correctly, either it didn't work at all or it was on continuously or when it did work it was making a continuous low note when flashers were in the off position. So I've now decided to buy another small alarm and wire them both into the flasher wiring situated in the headlamp one for each side.....:rolleyes:

    Received my second alarm and set about fitting them both inside the headlamp. Of course the headlamp on the America is huge compared to my Newchurch and therefore there's plenty of room for a couple of extra small alarms. Tested each side to confirm positive feed and wired both alarms in sticking them both to the inside of the outer shell with double sided tape, replaced the headlamp all working great so no more excuses for forgetting to cancel the indicators.
    One thing I had to do was tape over half of the sound emitting hole to cut down on the volume, they are pretty loud. Parts used were Hender Part no: - 546419H x 3 for both bikes if anyone is interested..... :)
