Very brief and easy to understand. Great job

Thanks Andy for a very quick response. I will go shopping tomorrow and give you feedback after installing the relay..

Thank you for explaining what I need to do to my Ford diesel tractor. Replacement lighting is several hundred dollars (US) but I was able to do the job for $5.00 dollars to get my old tractor to flash again. Many thanks from NW Connecticut USA

Cool, old school demonstration Thank you! 👍

Thanks Andy, helped me diagnose a little headache. Good info 👍

Great video, needed to use a flasher relay for a horn on an alarm system.. This helped a lot, thanks Andy

Excellent! I've never worked with electrics. Now I'm ready to fix DIY indicators on my tricycle! Thank you :D

Thanks so much for the explanation!!

thankyou for this verry imformative video,i love it! from philippines

very informative sir, thank you!!!

Great video! So easy to understand.

thank you so much for help, and you are right "always keep it easy".

thanks for showing basics of relays. I'm seeing a lot of really inexpensive 2 pin relays on the market, with adjustable rate, usually 50 - 200 c/min

Great 👍 DIY video. Thank you for sharing knowledge.

very helpful,thanks Andy.cheers Graeme in Taranaki

Who the hell would dislike this video? Amazing explanation!

I personally did not dislike it. However, i don't like how he did not wire in a switch. The way he did it here a flasher will work 100% of the time. Constant power, no ground to switch to be able to control it, turn it on/off

Thankyou very informative, and the three pin type is exactly what i have on my VW type 2 camper

thank you so much!! i have been looking for a video like this and you explained it so nicely. also,i have never seen anyone make nines the way you do,most people make the circle part of the nine first..... thanks again,great video.

Great! Very well presented and very informative. Thanks, Andy!

Super Andy, thanks from the Netherlands!! :-)

That was all what I was looking for today - thx a lot

Thanks alot! I just got a bike with no electronics and I've always been unsure of how to wire indicators! Thank you!!

Useful video. Thank You!

Great video thanks. So well explained. Just helped me set up a homemade splashing duck decoy that I couldn't get working.

Hi Andy I've installed LED to my 2007 Vulcan and the rear is all good with 2 wire setup but the front which are 3wire stay on but indicate when you activate switch so you have both lights on with one blinking. I also installed aftermarket relay for LED lights which is a 2pin same as the original.

Thanks! Helped greatly.

Great job fam 💪 well done explanation 👏👏

Taught very well. Thank you.

Brilliant Thanks Andy you should teach full time

Awesome Job on the video outstanding

Great explanation! What gauge wire should I use for adding turn signals and horn to a 2015 wr450?

Yes complete clarity. Thankyou

so great information thanks friend

شكراً لـــك ، Thanks Andy

thank you so much for explaining electrical wizardry so clearly

Thanks for your helping

Geeez, that man BENDS SPACE around himself!!!

great presentation

Thank you so much for the video. I've now got a game plan to make my own turn signal lighting harness for my John Deere Gator RSX860M. That was going to cost me $750 to have the factory harness and lights installed at my dealer. The low cost option was to buy a $420 factory wiring harness and switch, purchase my own lights and install myself. I bet I can buy all the parts and make my own for under $100! Great and inspiring tutorial.

Thanks for the lessons. Im wiring a motorcycle from complete tear down. What part of the circuit is the switch usual wired? I can wire it a couple of ways to make it work, but I'm sure there's a way it's traditionally wired. I'm an electrician with limited automotive wiring experience. Thanks again for your knowledge and sharing your time!

Thanks you realy help me

great vid!! thanks

Hello , great video Thankyou. How do you wire in a switch into this set up. Thanks Shawn

Hey Andy!! I use the 2nd type of relay at work all the time. Was hoping you could give me some pretty specific pointers. I use these for wiring up street legal kits with turn signals, ect. on side by sides and atvs. I'm relatively new in the game, and have been tasked with figure out how to integrate the rear brake lights as working turn signal indicators on a 2018 Polaris RZR turbo 1000. I've managed to do so, but am unaware of a way to cancel out the brake signal to the corresponding tail light during turn signal use. So turn signal will flash tail light until brakes are depressed, and then brake signal overrides the flasher signal and just stays lit. I assume i need a different kind of relay, like a d.p.d.t. with the brake switch somehow wired into it, but have no experience in such things. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I can get wiring diagrams if needed.

Great video that answered some of my questions especially about the load and speed of the flash. I'm looking for a way to make a 12 volt LED strip flash using this same idea however not on a vehicle.

+JD L An electronic flasher relay will do that - it's not load sensitive

True legend. Well deserved like.

Very understandable, thaks.

This is super helpful!!! I've recently installed LED's on all the exterior flasher bulbs on my 86 GMC K1500 they worked good with the bulbs installed for all the rear lights then when I installed the front flasher LED bulbs they all flashed very slow. I'm assuming its either a problem with my relay or the load is somehow being blocked from LEDs between the front or back. I was going to try load resistors to even out the ammount of power going to the LED's. now that I've watched your video I think the flasher relays may be more of the problem though.

Great teach video not like others.

Great video! I noticed that the light bulb's connection to the LED relay was accidentally connected at the 39, not the 39a (around time 9:30 in the video). That might be why the LED one didn't work

Like the basics, good refresher, but you probably might add running lights like ones found on my old 1983 kawasaki 750 ltd. The reason I feel it would be beneficial is the front and rear running lights the turn signals share the same single filament bulb and a 2 conductor flaher. This would help those whom don't understand how that one filament can flash when the lights are on, trouble shoot more effectively. So it is my opinion. If you would include the ignition switch and turn signal switch and maybe the separate two conductor hazard flasher could be even more beneficial for understanding what real world scenarios, such as chasing a bad wire/connector or multifunctional switch like in my 04 Ford f350 can greatly complicate simple circuits such as a flasher

thanx a lot sir

Good Morning Andy...never heard of a 3 pin relay till now. I'm in Los Angeles...can you make a video of a electrical automotive fan (dual) for hi & low speed using 4 pin relays? Just a thought for us over here across the pond..lol..Great Videos Keep up the Good Work Thanks Andy. Yazmin Venice Beach Ca

thanks very much will go and try it because i have a problem with my mazda 626 fs no turning light ,no hazards ,

Hi Andy! New subscriber here. Love this video. I'm a tech of 15 years and I do understand flasher relays a bit. However, I have a question maybe you could help with. I have a 2007 Victory Hammer that both right side directionals are not working due to a failure in the auto cancel module. By bypassing the wires to the module and wiring a separate relay, i should be able to have the right side working again, correct? Basically what is happening is I have a constant ground to the wire going to the module but when putting the flasher on, it does not power. Thanks

That was great ! Thanks

I'm just wondering if this is possible,the indicators don't work on the right hand side of the fiat doblo i just bought.I have diagnosed it to a faulty indicator relay on the bcm circuit board. It operated the left indicators ok but wires for right indicators are dead at the bcm output. Would it be possible to wire in a conventional relay just to operate right side indicators from my indicator stalk??Thanks.

Can a wire such kind of relay to my center stop light somehow?i want when i press the brakes the center stop light to flash like the turn signals flashes.Is it possible to wire it like this?

hi andy, I fixed separate 2pin flasher relay(similar to the original one) without removing the original flasher relay for hazard signal light configuration for my bike. in addition to the main front and rear signal lights (basically halogen), there are two led handle signal lights. the problem is once I connected front signal lights double signal light didn't work. without front signal lights it is working perfectly. for testing purposes, I fixed two led strips for the front and checked. then hazard signal lights did work. what could be the reason for this

hello, I installed a 3 wire hazard switch on my moto but doesnt blink. It wants to blink but it looks like has not to much power to to do this. I use regular lamps, not LED. Any suggestion?

So an electronic flasher 3 pin will work on front and rear and mirror turn signals ? What about running lights? I have a 2004 EZGO TXT:Marathon golf cart. Any thoughts….Thank You Andy!

Hello, if i attach my 49a wire to a on-off-on style switch in the off position will i be able to control a left / right circuit

Saved my day! Haha

Great video! A '?'.. I need to replace an existing faulty 12v 2 prong relay that's malfunctioning on a 64 vw beetle (no emergency flasher in 64, it's just for turn signals). Was told I should go to the 3 prong (newer type) so the pin 31 can go to a grd so it works properly. Would this be true? Thanks for any feedback!

Thanks!

Hi Andy Mechanic, Thanks for a great video. I have just fitted a brand new set of LED blinkers, new wiring and a brand new steering column indicator switch unit on my vintage car. The lights glow and don't flash. I gather that I need to include an electronic relay. Where do you suggest I pick up one in Auckland. Is this a better approach than installing load resistors? David.

Hi David, yes, replacing the relay is by far the best option. Take your existing relay and wiring diagram to TWL - they are Hella agents and will be able to match up the correct electronic relay to suit your application. Great job. Thanks for the feedback. Cheers Andy

THANK U BRO

Nice 👍

Thanks 👍

VERY GOOD Explanation and Demonstration, I Thank You as I was having trouble with a universal new turn signal switch on my Club Car DS. I will go ATTACK that little problem with much better approach!! Thanks Again! John S.
