Fender Mounted Turn Signal



Somebody rattling my cage?   Hello?

Mark's reason for the statement that the rear lights might be involved is
the fact that some flashers won't sequence if one of the bulbs is burned
out, but I think the 67s must use a very heavy duty flasher, because so many
bulbs are flashed (the normal light duty ones wouldn't handle the load, or
would flash extremely rapidly, due to the extra current.)   For this reason,
I doubt the front indicators are affected much by what's happening at the
rear of the car.  These bulbs are indeed wired in parallel, as D-squared
pointed out.  They are fed off the same circuit as the other front turn
signal filaments, and so if the other front flasher lights are working, the
fender top ones should be working also.   Even though I have 4 cars with
these, I have never had a failure, so I regret I cannot tell you what bulb
is used, but it should be in your owner's manual or your FSM.
