Round tail light wiring
Although I am a ways away from putting this in, does anyone have any suggestions for wiring the roung Lucas tail lights using the Haywire harness provided by B&B. The harness only has taillight and turn signal connections. The bulbs on the Lucas lights have two connections. What is the best configuration. Any wiring diagrams using the trailer light converter?

I will bring this old post back to the top. I have heard mention of the trailer lighting option, but can not find any details. Can anyone explain? I have the IDIDIT column and Haywire, do I need to do this? I can not get the turn signals or hazards to blink.
I really want to drive this weekend with out hand signals :>) Thanks, Jim |
1. Make sure the supply to the steering column is from the correct source from the fuse block. The supply to the turn signal switch must come from the flasher on the fuse block. (The current through the flasher causes a bi-metal strip to heat up and disconnect the circuit until it cools which causing it to re-ingage)
2. Make sure you have the correct flasher and it is good. (There is more than one kind) 3. Make sure all the lights come on when you engage the turn signal. (Must have sufficient current to operate flasher) 4. Make sure the bulbs are grounded on one side of the filement. (They can feed back through the wiring to a semi-ground and sorta light.) Hope this helps. |
