5. Operation

Once installed, the Kuryakyn 3233 LED Trunk Accent Swoops will operate in conjunction with your motorcycle's existing lighting system. They are designed to function as:

• Running Lights: Providing continuous illumination when the motorcycle's lights are on.
• Turn Signals: Flashing in sync with your motorcycle's turn signals to indicate directional changes.

6. Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your LED Trunk Accent Swoops, follow these maintenance guidelines:

• Cleaning: Clean the accent swoops regularly with a soft cloth and mild, non-abrasive cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the chrome finish or LED lenses.
• Inspection: Periodically inspect the wiring connections for any signs of wear, corrosion, or looseness. Ensure the accent swoops remain securely mounted.
• Waterproofing: The product is designed to be waterproof. However, avoid directing high-pressure water sprays directly at the LED units or wiring connections during washing.

7. Troubleshooting

If you experience issues with your Kuryakyn 3233 LED Trunk Accent Swoops, consider the following:

• Lights Not Illuminating: Check all electrical connections for proper seating and continuity. Verify that the motorcycle's fuses are intact. Ensure the battery is fully charged and properly connected.
• Incorrect Flashing (Turn Signals): If turn signals flash too quickly or too slowly, it may indicate an issue with the motorcycle's flasher relay or a load imbalance. Consult a qualified technician if this persists.
• Dim or Intermittent Lighting: Inspect wiring for damage or loose connections. Ensure no moisture has entered the electrical components.

For persistent issues, contact Kuryakyn customer support or a certified motorcycle technician.
