Hazard lights
« on: May 09, 2019, 23:33:38 »
You may remember about  six months ago i showed a non factory  hazard light switch
that i had for years,and had fitted  others to classic cars years ago,.
Last weekend i just fitted it to my June 1965 vin 011696, although i did not fit
it in the correct position in dash,i am very happy now that i have them as i feel
alot safer in todays driving conditions.
Very easy to fit,and has small red light on switch knob, and easy to find as it
is right next to steering.  Brite Vue, made in sixties in USA. No need for a relay
as it is fitted with a heavy duty Echlin flasher.

Safety first!

How many photos did you take to get a shot of the indicator "on"?  ;D

JamesL, yes i thought the same, but no only about  three,the old original flasher
is heavy duty, and it flashers very fast, infact faster than my late model corolla
so thats probably why.
The other funny thing that happened, i did a 65 Buick Riviera years ago , and required all
four wire hook ups, but with the Pagoda ,only required  two wires, one left one right side,
testing with a 12 volt test light, and they all worked, so just folded the extra  two wires  up
by the switch. Power i hooked up to the small  2 fuse factory fuse box on the passenger side ,
by the radiator bottle,same as my radios. regards.
