I have a puzzle whilst rebuilding my 1986 K100 RT with the indicators.
Having re-installed the original wiring I tested the indicators. The left indicators worked fine but the right failed to illuminate or blink with just a noise from the flasher unit. So my first reaction was faulty flasher unit which I replaced. Same problem occurred so probably not unit. The added conundrum was that when you switch the right indicator on the front parking light comes on tries to blink. I have consulted the wiring diagram and cannot see where these 2 wires would intersect to create a short or direct power to the parking light when right indicator is activated. To top it off the Parking light works fine when switched on normally.
Sorry for being long winded but any advice on where the fault could be would be gratefully accepted.
