tcslr Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Would someone send, post or describe how to wire in rear, bumper mounted lights - dual brake and turn. A single wire is in, how do I splice, land, whatever the turn signal to the brake?Thanks in advance. Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alfre Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 First do you have a 7 wire signal light switch?you will have two wires going to the two back stop lights one left one right.next one wire to the stop light switch, the original terminal that went to stop light.two wires for the front signal lights.one wire from flasher to signal light switchone wire from flasher to indicator light.the flasher will be a three terminal type one power in, one power out to switch, one to indicator light.

Alfre Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 Do you have instructions as to what color wire goes to front and rear? and do you have a 3 prong flasher of heavy duty type that will flash one light or ten equally, two prong flashers quite often don't work.

tcslr Posted April 20, 2012 Author Share Posted April 20, 2012 Yes. I got a 6V three-prong flasher and wired it in. I fused the power supply to the switch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest shadetree77 Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 You also need to make absolutely sure that your lights are grounded. On my '52 Buick, the whole system grounds to each light housing individually. If even one of the lights doesn't have a good ground, it will cause the entire system not to function.

Alfre Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 You did not answer if the wires are labeled or make of car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
