Opening up the indicator switch
------------------------------------------------------------------------
ORIGINAL POST:
On my 2021 cb500x, the indicators have become erratic. Struggling to come on, to stay on, and blinking irregularly. The way the behaviour responds to fiddling with the switch makes me think the contacts are dirty or corroded.
Has anyone tried opening up the switch housing succesfully? Can these contacts be cleaned? I don't want to replace the whole unit if some contact cleaner could get it.

## Edit: Done the thing. ##
Two phillips 2 screws in underneath and the whole thing pops open neatly. Here are the photos I wanted to find on the internet before I did this myself. You can clean the switches for the indicators and the highbeam like this.
