Hey FABO!
I have also posted this question on a truck board, so apologies if you've seen it before.
I'm trying to understand the electrical path for my turn signal indicator lights on the dashboard.
I'm restoring a Plymouth truck and making a custom dash, so the original wiring/circuit board will not be used. I'm thinking about using turn signal indicators like this
When I trace the wire from the flasher (in the fuse block) it does not lead to the indicator lights (green arrows) in the original dash circuit board. Below, circled in RED is where the flasher wire goes, and circled in BLUE is the L&R indicator lights.
So, how does the indicator light (green arrow) on the dash know to flash instead of stay solid? Does the flasher wire go to the turn signal switch on the column and then to the L&R indicator light pins (BLUE circles)? Or something else?
Thank you for any replies.
