Flasher relay

Yes Roger, the lamp filament can have an adverse effect on this circuit and your solution was a valid one.---Keoke- /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/yesnod.gif
 
As mentioned above, if you have brake lights you are half way home. The 8 contact relay is mainly a distribution point for the electricity to enable the directionals to over ride the brake light system. The cheapest test is to replace the three pin flasher. They are just about universal, I am using a $3. one from AutoPalace. If that solves the problem, then you can buy a "correct" one. Bob
