[Healeys] indicators

[Jack Feldman]

I did what Jay Leno would call a Redneck solution. The flasher on my BT7 is
near the firewall on the left side. I simply pulled the connectors off the
flasher, then inserted the buzzer wires in the connectors and pressed them
back on the flasher. As you can guess, this is far from a show car, which is
just the way I want it.

I put an audible turn signal warning on my BJ8.  I've sent John Sims the
technical info for his site (http://www.healey6.com).
I was going to use chimes instead of a buzzer because the chime tone is less
annoying, although still audible at speed; but I ended up using a chime for
the left and a buzzer for the right (long story).  Now, I can tell which one
is on without looking at the light!

A few days ago there was someone stating that he was going to change his
indicator relay for one that clicks louder.
I solved the problem of forgetting to cancel the indicators by fitting a
small 12V 80dBA buzzer parallel to the warning lights. I have one for
right and one for left but if you have a single warning light it will
work as well. These can be had from ebay, electronic shops or radio
shacks. I paid GBP0,99, about US$2, each for them.
The buzz is annoying and very audible also at high speed. You cannot
ignore it. Fitted in minutes and you can keep your original relay.
