welcome, nice looking ride. I'd have to check the wiring circuit. Orange wire at brake switch is hot all the time, protected by stop/haz fuse 20 amp. The white wire from brake switch goes hot when you step on the brake. From the brake switch that circuit goes to the turn switch. Did you check voltage and ground at the rear?
