Re: [FWDLK] Single bulb turn flasher.....how did they do that?



2 small diodes will do it. Just like the third brake lights use. A diode is a silicone 1 way electrical valve. So if you place 1 in line (pointed the correct way) on each wire from the lights on each side, that will do it. It works like this, left turn blinks, power goes from bulb thru diode to indicator which also binks and starts down other wire to right side, except the pesky diode is blocking it. It does the same thing the other way. No emergency flashers now!
Just make sure you have them pointed in the right direction.

Maybe you need more flasher fluid!
Happy flashing, Ray

ForwardLookers......my 61 Dart has a single bulb for both the left and right flashing dashing warning.  Either left or right is indicated on the same bulb.  I wish to duplicate this feature on a 48 Chrysler but am baffled.  Connecting an offshoot wire from both sides to a single bulb creates an "emergency flasher" with feedback fueling both sides at the same time.  A dual filament bulb would work with one bright and the other dimmer, but how did Dodge do it with a single filament small indicator lamp?  Any body solved this in the past?  Larry Jett, soon to be less one 1961 Dodge.  Look to this space in middle of January for a report of how Barrett Jackson treated "DodgeDifferent"  Number 332 on Wednesday.
