Has anyone rewired a later model car to that of an early model car to get individual turn signal indiators?
The early style was wired so that each indicator light (in the tach) had one of the turn signal wires (black/white stripe or black/green stripe) and the blue/white stripe. As far as I can tell, the flasher relay is the same, but the wiring is different due to the fact that the 1974 and later cars only had the single indicator light in the tach. The 74 wiring diagram shows the indicator light wired to the blue/white stripe and ground. Is this rihgt or not. maybe I'll wire it up and find out..... |

I found the answer several months ago in UpFixin vol IX on Pages 171 and 172.
They show the additional wire required (as was installed in 1970-1973 cars) for the individual indicators to work. jk76.914 has it right. Two wires are added: green/black and white/black are added between the flasher relay and the indicator bulbs. The blue/white wire is terminated to the other side of both bulbs. BTW, did you know that PCA is giving away sets of the UpFixin der Porsche? I saw an add in last month's Panorama and got my set today in the mail. It is missing Vol 7, but otherwise it is complete and only cost me shipping. |
