Default Modules Before 2013 Discontinued

Need a turn signal module TSM 68920-07
Harley says they are discontinued 2013 and earlier.
What is a fella to do?

Found these, any comments?

My favorite aftermarket turn signal module is Signal Dynamics; they have several versions.Small and easy to wire up (but not plug-and-play). Badlands also makes turn signal modules. These are timer units, and don't use the speedo read switch. That makes them pretty much universal in application.

IXLtoRelax,
Deleting appears to eliminate a bunch of nice functions.
That was my first thought, eliminate it.
I hear the Chinese Harleys are quite nice, they make all the parts anyways, Alibaba?

JB in NC,
Emailed Signal Dynamics, thanks.

This is one of the pitfalls to high integration of many functions in single modules - failures affect those many functions. But it saves the MoCo a couple dollars on each bike and therefore more and more functions will be crammed into less modules - making failures very expensive to repair.

Kind of like the non-trapdoor-trans - fine for most people - but more expensive for those who experience a problem.

Be thankful for the strong aftermarket support.

I believe that module also contains the Bank Angle Sensor. I found a used replacement on E Bay some time ago.

Hammer,
This is a high failure item, also in a poor location for the Sportster and water vulnerable.
Used electronics scares the poo out of me. There is no test for them, only installation.
Good to hear you had success, and yes, the angle sensor is a very desirable feature.
