Re: [FWDLK] Single bulb turn flasher.....how did they do that?

Larry,

According to the wiring diagram for my 56 Dodge, the indicator light runs off the flasher and the flashing signal is switched at the turn signal switch.

Details: at the flasher socket, blue wire (terminal L) is 12v, red wire (terminal X) goes to the TS switch, and white wire (terminal P) to the flasher indicator bulb.

ForwardLookers......my 61 Dart has a single bulb for both the left and right flashing dashing warning. Either left or right is indicated on the same bulb. I wish to duplicate this feature on a 48 Chrysler but am baffled. Connecting an offshoot wire from both sides to a single bulb creates an "emergency flasher" with feedback fueling both sides at the same time. A dual filament bulb would work with one bright and the other dimmer, but how did Dodge do it with a single filament small indicator lamp? Any body solved this in the past?
