East York electrical help (ninja 250 turn signals dont work)

Anyone know were I can find someone to do some electrical work on my 08 ninja 250 ?

All the lights (except for the stuff on the speedo and the break/license plate lights dont work anymore.

No idea what the problem is.
(tried new fuse and new turn signal relay, still nothing.)

I want to get this fixed.
 
Probably your switch... aren't all those lights tied into it?
 
To do any serious investigation
work yourself, you'll need a meter and a wiring diagram.

I know that's not what you are really asking, but it's always good to learn more about your bike. This is the best way to learn.
 
Electrical problems can be hard to find which means it could end up costing you a bunch of money while someone tries to figure it out. As mentioned, doing some investigatory work yourself will teach you a lot about your bike. If you're going to go this route, then you really need a service manual and some wiring diagrams.

If multiple systems (headlights, turn signals, etc.) aren't working, then I'd start looking at power and ground wires. A lot of things are wired up through the ignition switch and the regulator/rectifier. Get a DMM (digital multimeter) and start poking around.
 
Oh maaann, dudes... I was really hoping someone could jump and come fix it for me, (50 bux and a couple beers is what I could offer ! lol).

I suck at electrical stuff. I have a digital multimeter laying around (god knows why) but i don't know how to use it. Umm ground wires what ?? lol , ****.

First it was the turn signal relay that started making a buzzing noise and signals stoped functioning properly after I left it out in the rain.
I replaced that with a new one (meant for led type signals... it worked a few times then just died... what does that mean ?? (apparently the lcd one works for both types of light, ie led and old school).

After that , I opened up the the switch box (on the left handle bar) and cleaned it up n put it back together , but still nothing. Even tried replacing fuses... damn it

50 bux and beers anyone ?? lol
