put the old ones back on and see if they do the same thing. If they work find then maybe it is how you hooked up the new ones or maybe the new ones arent working properly.

Did you replace them with LEDs? You might not have enough resistance to activate the flasher circuit. Try the sportbike section where you'll most likely get a better response.

If thats the problem, and the new lights do not draw enough power to trigger the flasher....you can buy new, more sensitive flasher to.
try a good auto parts place, they should have them.

ps. be sure the ground is hooked up, clean, and secure as well.
I see more lighting problems due to bad grounds than all other reasons combined...........well except blown bulbs...........
