leigh Posted July 1, 2009 Report Posted July 1, 2009 I'm installing a alarm into my ke55 coupe. Just wondering where the hazard light flasher relay would be located! I have found the turn signal relay, but when I hook up the outputs to the relay I can only get the driver side indicators to flash….. Cheers Leigh Quote
Taz_Rx Posted July 1, 2009 Report Posted July 1, 2009 Have you used a test light to check all of the wires in the loom under the steering column? Surely you should be able to find the one that comes down from the hazard switch!? Quote
Medicine_Man Posted July 1, 2009 Report Posted July 1, 2009 Unless the alarm came with 2 separate wires to go to indicator left/right they are usually set up to only flash the park lights on and off when you arm/disarm. you can get tricky and use some diodes to make it work on both indicators but it all depends if the unit is capable of that much current draw through all the globes (It can burn out the transistors inside the alarm)..

I was going to use a test lamp but i don't have a hazard light switch....... its busted off so i can't turn them on lol just thought that maybe the relay next to the turn indicator may of been it!...... ill sus it out again tonight Unless the alarm came with 2 separate wires to go to indicator left/right they are usually set up to only flash the park lights on and off when you arm/disarm. you can get tricky and use some diodes to make it work on both indicators but it all depends if the unit is capable of that much current draw through all the globes (It can burn out the transistors inside the alarm).. Yeah it has 2 wires to go to both of the indicator lights..... I did think about using some diodes but thought there should be an easier way... Quote
Medicine_Man Posted July 1, 2009 Report Posted July 1, 2009 Well those 2 wires should go to indicator left/indicator right, you don't connect it to the hazard light circuit.. Quote
leigh Posted July 1, 2009 Author Report Posted July 1, 2009 got it all sorted thanks guys! Finally found the correct relay output! Quote
