hey guys

i have anutha issue, im in australia and i have to wire the flickers into the reverse lights to licence the truck,
ive changed the globes, the flickers are wired into the brake lights,
i cant find the joining wires to alter this

any1 have an idea of how to do this

the tail lights + brake lights can stay in the same place, the flickers just have to be moved to the reverse lights,this is the only thing stopping it from getting licensed

 

Maybe switch at shifter . If all else fails put them on a toggle switch.
Find the wire going to reverse lights .. run power to toggle switch
then back to reverse lights. If your talking about signal lights ... maybe fuse or
check all bulbs . If front bubs bad rear will not flash. Plus theses trucks are bad for corroded sockets. Try cleaning rear sockets . Hope this helps.

 

I dont knoow what you are working on but the older units had the brake and turn lights running on the same wire you cant seperate these without going to the turn light switch.

 

yeah thats right they are in the same wire, were abouts is the switch?

my mate as a c1500 and his has been changedby the previous owner
( which has forgotn were he had it done )

in the fuse box the reverse lights and the flickers are on the same fuse
any more susgestions ????


thanks for the help so far

 

I will run you thru the way they work and you can decide how you want to change it. The current comes thru the stoplight switch to the turn light switch(thats the one on the left side under the steering wheel) when the switch is in the middle the current goes on out to the stop lights. When the switch is moved to one side that cuts the current from the stop light switch and substitutes current from the flasher to make that stop lite a turn light. So you see that changing this is going to be quite involved.
