1985 GL1200 Interstate, LOVE this bike.
1985 GL1200I, 43K on the clock. When the weather is cold (30-45 degrees) my right turn signal will usually not work for 10-30 seconds after I activate the switch. It is a bit disconcerting, to say the least, when I try the turn signals, make my lane change without the turn signal and a half mile down the road my turn signal comes on. When ambient temperature is above 50 or so they work fine.
My first inclination is to disassemble the switch and clean all the contacts, lube with dielectric grease and put back together. My confusion is why would temperature have anything to do with this. Any ideas or input?
