hey guys need some help here

have a 81 xj650 everything was working fine , until i ordered some new front turn signals , the new 1s have 2 wires where the stock grounded when you screwed the signal light down , i have the new 1s working and grounded , fuses are all fine and getting power on both sides , with bike at idle, i tested the 2 headlight plugs and neither is getting power , im lost there's quite a mess inside the headlight bucket as far as wires go. plz help thanks

 

Hi,
To clarify...
1. Your 1 wire turn signal lamps were working fine.

2. You replaced them with new 2 wire turn signals.
__2a. Incandescent replacements?
___2a.1 If incandescent, Are they single filament or double filament.
____2a.1.a If single filament, are they grounded via the ground properly.
___2a.2 If double filament is the correct bulb being used...
____2a.2.a Is the bulb holder grounded?
____2a.2.b Are you trying to energise both filaments? What overall wattage?
__2b. LED replacements?
___2b.1 Is the correct load being applied to the circuit for the relay to energise and pulse?

3. You have no power reaching the new turn signals.
__3a. Tested with multimeter, what voltage are you getting? 0v?

4. Checked the lighting fuse?

Barring any of that helping out...
You would really need to sit down with the wiring schematic, follow the wires and test for the correct impedance and voltages.

Wiring Diagrams.
