I have restored my 1980 Yamaha XS650SG and everything is working except the turn signals. Starts and runs fine with headlight (high and low beam), horn and brake lights all working. None of the turn signals are working. The left rear signal was seriously corroded once the lens cover was removed. The other 3 signals were super clean under the lens cap. Could the one corroded unit be affecting the whole turn signal system? I am in the process of tracking down replacement parts for the corroded unit. Any thoughts appreciated.

I bought switch assy. from someone on e-bay and now it is being intermittent (works some times and some times not). Dangerous to say the least. If wires and connections are ok Mikes XS has them for $48 I think.
