turn signal switch

[supertzar]

Ok, I have a 94 fzr 600. i blew a fuse that runs the neutral light, turn signals, tach, brake light, and horn. I had a few spare 10 amp fuses so i tested some stuff out. When i use the right signal the fuse blows. use the left signal and the fuse is fine. I cant seem to find a short in the wire so i was wondering if part # 9 is the turn signal switch. i am assuming that the switch has a short or is bad.

S,
get your self a 5 dollar test meter and go over each section of the switch and the loom that is in the RH circuit. 1 chaffed wire insulation and condensation = 1 short.

I did take off both lenses and checked the sockets. everything looks brand new in there. dont see ANY rust.
