2000 VTR Turn signal switches have a long delay
Hello,
My turn signal switches move poorly with some resistance and when I set them left or right it can sometimes take up to a minute for them to come on. Additionally when I disengage them I sometimes see an occasional flash from the indicators in the cockpit.
I want to know if anyone here has disassembled the controller and cleaned it up with any success? if so did you take any pictures? Any pointers?

Yes. They are known to be problematic when gunked up. Do a search for "slow turn signal" on this forum. Cleaning them helps some times, and some times the relay needs replacing.

I've been using 100% canola. If I really feel like spending big bucks, ill get the already seasoned/used oil from Burger King so I smell like fries and onion rings. You could say my blinkers are biodegradeable friendly.

I just use sun/moon power. Secondary mirrors mounted right above the grips, and I flip them back and fourth on the side that I'll be turning on. Cars catch the glint of light and know exactly what I'm doing right away!
