It is possible to get an LED for the flasher, as long as you get an LED-com=

That is probably due to the fact that the flasher unit requires a minimum c=
urrent to operate.=C2=A0 Since this is a three-terminal unit with the third=
 wire for the dash indicator switching over to a two-terminal electronic fl=
asher will not work.=C2=A0 And the electronic units may be Neg-Ground only.

Recently picked up a 59 TR3 which has an alternator conversion.=C2=A0 Since=
 the engine was separate, I have no idea how well the generator works or if=
 at all.=C2=A0 It is still in the engine compartment, wires connected (unli=

=20
=C2=A0

Given the current availability of LED lights, and since I have no interest =
in installing a radio, should I try to keep the current setup (little joke =
there) or go back to a generator?
=20

Are there wiring diagrams for this car with a generator?=C2=A0

 works or if at all.&nbsp; It is still in the engine compartment, wires con=
