[TR] Clarification

[dave]

It does not matter what LED you use.  But it does matter how the car is wired.  For example, if the car is wired for a left hand circuit and a right hand circuit, if you get a flasher unit that is wired for only a single circuit, that will be a problem.  I am not at all versed on this but I have copied LiteZupp on this and Mike should be able to help you.

First, I'm wondering if the choice for flasher may depend on the type of LED conversion (or not).  I did a LiteZupp conversion that calls for a LFM3NG flasher.  This is three prong with one for power, one for blinker, one for the indicator light and a wire coming off for ground.  I managed to bugger up the one I had so need to re-order from LiteZupp, though a more commonly available conversion flasher would be welcome.   

 

Second, a question.  I'm not getting right directionals to work front or back.  This could be the directional switch on the column, an open wire, or...and here's the question...if an LED is burned out, can it cause both directionals in the circuit to be inoperable?  I've hooked power direct from the battery to both left and right directionals at the point they enter the flasher.  The Left directional lights up front and back.  The Right directional does neither.   

 

Hoping people are bored enough staying home to help!

I'm using a CEC EF-33RL. Moss has them in either 2 prong or 3 (141-668) 

I bought the three prong and it works well. Other sources for this same 

flasher are far less expensive than Moss.

Can anyone tell me what kind of flasher unit for an LED conversion on a TR3A?
