Re: [FWDLK] '55 Savoy -- where do I find the flasher? And other wiring mysteries...



Dan -

Why don't you make it easy on yourself and save some $$ at the same time.
Go to a salvage yard that has another 55 and pull the harness from there.
Label every wire before removing.  Even if it turns out to be bad, at least
you'll have a template to work from.

Ron

PS - RI Wiring does not have the correct connectors for our cars.  They end
up reusing the ones from the orig harness.
