Dave,

If your indicator light is working "backward", try another flasher. Definitely a problem that I've never seen before.


Zimmy,

The tail light converter allows a single filament on each side to do double-duty as the brake and signal. Normally, it's done with a special signal switch, but with the Cobra it was done with a relay.

The trailer relay converts the electrical signals from a car with separate brake and signal lights to a trailer with a system with shared lights - the equivalent to the Cobra. Generally, they either work or they don't, so if yours is just erratic, I'd check other components first. The relays are very sensitive to malfunctions of a single light.
