Hi,
I have this light thats keep flashing, I cant figure out what it is. Please help.
Also, I submitted another pircture of this small device that Im not familiar with which sits on top of air filter, it vibrates pretty bad. Could someone please tell me what it is/does and maybe how much to replace it.

Are you talking about the canister? Just zip tie it down.
The light looks to be a bulb out light. Check your head lights and tail lights.

that small cylinder (tube coming in and another one out) on top of air filter , it clicks. So does it click cause its broken or does it click perhaps because of lack of fluid or air? What does it do?

That canister to my recollection is a solenoid, which if so, it should click as it actuates.
