Great Horn Switch, Minor Wiring Hiccup!

 This post is part of my activities with AliExpress, and I may receive a commission for purchases made through links in this content.


I recently picked up the 1 Pcs Left 22mm Motorcycle Switches Motorbike Horn Button Turn Signal Warning Light Handlebar Controller Switch because I needed to replace the worn-out controls on the left side of my handlebars. Finding the right integrated unit can sometimes be tricky, so I was hopeful this unit would be a straightforward swap for my bike setup.

Upon arrival, shipping was surprisingly fast, which was a definite plus. I immediately noticed that while the switch housing itself felt solid enough for the price point—the button action for the horn and the turn signals seemed crisp and responsive—there was an immediate hurdle. It appears the connector wasn't a direct plug-and-play match for my particular bike, which echoes what a couple of other buyers mentioned regarding receiving a different switch than expected or having connector issues.


Thankfully, if you're handy, this is solvable; I was able to quickly repin the connector to match the standard I needed, and after that minor modification, everything functions perfectly.


Once wired correctly, the functionality is spot on. The turn signal cancellation feels tactile, and the warning light switch engages without any fuss. It’s great having a fresh, responsive unit handling my essential controls.


Other buyers seem to feel similarly once they get past the initial connectivity hurdle, noting that when it works, it works perfectly.


So, who is this for? If you are looking for a budget-friendly replacement and you are comfortable doing a little electrical modification—like repinning connectors—this product is a solid contender. If you expect a 100% direct OEM replacement right out of the bag without touching a wire, you might run into the same connector issue that others have flagged.


Overall, despite the slight installation curveball, I'm very satisfied with the outcome and the quality of the controls now that they are installed. For anyone needing a functional left handlebar controller, I highly recommend this 22mm Motorcycle Switches unit after a quick bit of wiring adaptation.
