Rear turn signal flasher wiring ‘78 Coupe De Ville

[rodneybeauchamp]

Hi all, 

For several years I have ragged a friend over the terrible orange turn signal lamps retro fitted to his Columbia Blue Coupe De Ville to pass Australian laws for compliance.

 

Well, I have been given the task to refit them back to original red flasher and brake light. Don’t mind as I enjoy electrical work and love getting things back to how they should be. (did the same on my ‘63 Buick Skylark convertible some months back)

 

Would a forum member be able to post some photos of how the wiring connects to the lamp? And would someone have a wiring diagram I could use. As far as I know without seeing it yet, they have just extended the existing flasher wire into a new LED lamp screwed to the rear bumper ☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️ With a horrible fast flash rate.

 

Anything I need to be aware of when digging into these lamps?

 

TIA Rodney 😀😀😀😀😀😀

Thank you Joe, much appreciated. Will email this to David as he wants to reconfigure the hazard lights.

 

BTW we did manage to get it back to OEM by reversing and joining up wires that had been cut and removing a new feed for the brake lights.

 

Cheers
