Flasher relay I needed a blinker relay for a project, had the work card so I opted for the heavy duty one at $16 vs $5 for the normal, I usually go cheap. I figured if it’s better it should go on a better ride than the beater project so I switched it out for the old one in my 60 Dcab. Wow! What a difference! Blinks better, stronger, brighter (I think) than the old one which worked fine, has a really nice audible click. So cool to see something advertised as better actually be better. Guess it should be for 3x the price… If your blinkers are sluggish or dim you might want to try this.

Where did you get it from?

How much?

flaps – O’reillys $16.99

Cleaned and lubed my ts switch and now I have self cancelling turn signals, what a concept!

Now if I could just get the odometer to work reliably I’d know when I’m going to run out of fuel, gears are worn out.

My $22 relay lasted 3 days and contacts welded closed….been using column switch manually ever since haha

I was having the same problem of burning out turn signal relays every five days to three months for the last couple years.

Few weeks back it burned out again. Started fucking with it, and it was intermittent depending on how I pushed on the fuse box.

Ended up being a corroded connection in the press together fuse box on the circuit running the relay.

Replaced fuse box  No problems since.

We will build it if it comes.

Interesting…my fuse panel was all cleaned and soldered up…may have to ohm some shit out, makes sense.
