Additional Turn Signal System Details Black Anodized, Natural Aluminum, and under dash toggle switch options.
We also offer a bead-blasted housing suitable for painting to match your column color. (not shown)
Top and bottom views of the controller. Note the use of cotton covered power and ground leads. We chose to use a small clear cable for the actual switch lead to keep it as unobtrusive as possible. On the bottom you can see the time self-cancel adjustment and speaker. The terminal strip label makes installation easy.
Compare our switch to the old style units that were available in the 1950s. The very top unit will not multiplex the brake and turn functions and requires separate turn and brake lamps. The next unit will multiplex the brake and rear turn lamps but will not multiplex the front park lights. These units along with all other currently available switches require separate park and turn lights. They also require mechanical flashers that are load sensitive. In cases using front fog/driving lights as turn indicators or LED(light emitting diodes), the flasher will either flash too fast or not at all. There are two other self canceling systems on the market that we are aware of that require either added resistors or special flashers at extra cost for use with LED's. Our system is timed electronically and will flash at the same rate regardless of the load.

Wiring Kits We offer wiring kits in cotton covered or plastic wire. These kits include enough wire to reach from the car column /controller location to each corner of the car. Each wire is a different color for easy identification. High quality crimp style butt end, male and female bullet connectors with weather sealing heat shrink included.
(Cotton Covered Wire) (Plastic Wire) $49.95 $34.95 Wire kits now include fabric loom (not shown) to cover the wire.
Lamps We can provide #81 6 candle power lamps that directly replace #63 3 candle power 6 volt lamps. Many of the older cars use #63 lamps for park lights. We suggest replacing these with #81 lamps for improved visibility. Our controller can be programmed to run the #81 lamps at half power when just the park lights are on (will appear as a #63 lamp) and will switch to full power during a turn. Try that with another turn signal switch!! If you have room for the larger #87 lamps in your park light housings, this is an even better choice. The #87 bulb is a 6 volt 21 candle power lamp with the same base but has a larger S-8 glass envelope.
