Who doesn't know hazard lights? This emergency light is often found on four-wheeled vehicles, both private cars and other modes of transportation. Unfortunately, motorcycles are still not equipped with this technology, but you can try making hazard lights on a motorcycle without replacing the flasher. Here’s how. 

Getting to Know Hazard Lights

Hazard Lights are lights that signal to other drivers through their blinking. There are several conditions under which these emergency lights should be turned on, such as when a vehicle breaks down, when changing a tire, stopping briefly on the shoulder of the road, or in the event of an accident. 

All these conditions pose a risk to other vehicles, so signaling is necessary to ensure that other drivers are more cautious. However, it is unfortunate that the hazard button is only available for four-wheeled vehicles. In fact, motorcycle riders also need this button to signal to other drivers. 

Realizing this condition, riders often modify their own vehicles as a precaution. When the modification is successful, both turn signals will blink simultaneously like the hazard lights on a car.

Steps to Create Emergency Lights on a Motorcycle

The way to install hazard lights on a motorcycle can be done by connecting the left and right turn signal wires into one, which is added with the hazard light. Although all four turn signals can be connected together, the flasher on the vehicle cannot make all the turn signals blink at the same time. 

A flasher is a component in the turn signal circuit that functions to blink the lights when the hazard button is turned on. Because the flasher power on a motorcycle is not strong enough to activate all four turn signals simultaneously, you indirectly need to replace it with a special car flasher as the best alternative. 

This is because motorcycle flashers cannot produce bright light for all four turn signals at the same time. However, you also don’t need to worry that using a car flasher will damage other motorcycle components; it’s just that the turn signals will blink faster than they should. So, here’s what you need to do:

1. Prepare Tools

Interested in installing hazard lights on your beloved two-wheeled vehicle? First, please prepare some tools and materials such as a screwdriver, switch, tape, wires, and of course, a car flasher.

2. Disassemble the Vehicle Body 

This is to make it easier to find the location of the vehicle's flasher, then replace it with the car flasher. The car flasher has 3 legs, where two legs can be connected directly to the socket and the rest connected using wires. When the installation is successful, the turn signals will light up as they should, although the blinking will appear faster. 

3. Find the Positive (+) Power Wire

You can disassemble the motorcycle lights, then look for the wire marked with a plus (+) on both turn signals. Combine the two positive wires using a switch, and the hazard light is ready to use. 

Based on its function, two-wheeled vehicles also need hazard lights to signal danger to other drivers. If motorcycle manufacturers do not add them, there is nothing wrong with modifying your own vehicle.
