Electronics » Replacing the LED Turn Light

The rear indicator/turn light on my RS was snapped by someone/something so I have bought a replacement.

I thought that the starting point would be to loosen the torx bolt on the stem of the light but that just seems to turn without loosening, so I suspect there is a nut on the other end.

Does anyone have any suggestions on where to start please? I have also looked for a service manual but have not been able to find one that covers my model (2018).

Thanks!

Here's what you need to remove.
5 fasteners total and as Paul mentioned you need to remove the rear seat to access 2 of them.

If you don't have bag mounts you may be able to remove the back 3 fasteners and pry the fender down enough to access the signal nut.

You'll need to remove the "rear fender". From memory: remove the pillion seat and you'll find bolts holding that on, as well as a bolt "underneath" near where it joins the number plate holder.

Thanks guys - getting this back together was much easier. Oddly, I think I spend the most time undoing the numerous cable ties hidden away in the tail section.
