The first car I can remember riding in, my parents had two cars after I was born but I don't remember riding in them, was a 1949 ford four door sedan that had a turn signal switch that was mounted to the column much like the one you had. I also used to drive a 1953 Chevrolet 2 ton farm truck that had a similar unit with turn signals mounted on top of the fenders.
Dude! When I think "home", that ACCENT is the Key! I have Sincerely enjoyed watching your steadfast progress, and have high hopes for you passing the safety test, and Racing that rod all over town! Cheers.
Great vid Thanks. I installed one of these on a golf cart. Did not use the stop light (red) wire. Everything works fine on the cart, but the lights on the switch itself do not light at all. Any suggestions? Thanks again.
I am having a similar problem on my new install on my Polaris side by side UTV . At first I would get clicking in the off position and when turning R or L but no lights outside . I tried dropping the blue . I pulled out the hazard and blew a fuse .I have the 3 pin flasher and the letters re different on the flasher they show but the locations were right but am wondering if they are different even with the same location . I didn’t hook to the brake switch . I am thinking of checking continuity through the turn signal switch and try to simplify it but I am worried they have interconnected something within . I may just go with a rocker switch and toss the chrome one and add a couple dash indicator lights . I’m happy you were successful . If I had hair I would be pulling it out .
I think what we don't realise is, sometimes the brake pedal switch is a constant feed when not pressed, and is activated when the circuit is broken (when you press the pedal). So, without wiring it through a brake pedal switch it could be confusing the system.
All the wires from the universal flasher unit could have gone down the square tube that you have on top of the steering column. Would have look neat and tidy lol.
Hey Dave. Did you that you don't even need flashers on your car? I don't know about where you live but In my area, I was told by the garage that is going to do my safety on the Fargo that the car just has to pass safety that was made in the year of your vehicle. So in1936 there were no signal flashers. Use hand signals. Chances are that you won't see the front lights at night with the headlights on. Thanks for sharing.👍👍🍁
I like that little box cutter for the way it flips open and closes so easily.Mine is a chore to work.Where might you have acquired that one if i may ask?
Ya got me, I totally thought you were gonna tuck the signals in the bumper cutouts....they look great where ya put’em...which reminds me...are you going to have bumpers?
Scott Rods Yikes....Good Hunting...Vintage 60’s VW bumpers might be a cheap and easy alternative...or just a couple of big ole Chrome bumper guards in the cutouts...like a couple of fangs
You should have had Dave with the hat take out the trash so you could have got right to work. Nice work on the lights. What type of wiper system will you be using?
@@ScottRods I leave it folded down when I pull my phone in it and check the side to side balance first then unfold it and hold arm part with the last motor on it check it again up and down then side to side and then turn it on and you should be good to go
All the man hours these people l see putting into these vehicles,is crazy, because you or rather they will never get back that time, but to each his own, guess l have just gotten fat and lazy,✌️
What would you rather be doing? Eating potato chips on the couch playing video games? lol it’s all about progressing towards completion and a killer final product it’s addicting to know you created something awesome by yourself.
Thank you I was confused about the blue wire now I know I need a 3-pin flasher thank you

Another job well done Dave. And another day closer to completion. Thanks for the video

Great video thanks from a Canadian in Pickering..have issue's with the wirng..at least I got the right side front working so far!!!!!
Are you installing new, or repairing a broken system?
@@ScottRods redoing a new A5007 United Pacific turn signal..Will tell you more later today..Thanks Marty!☺
just wondering if you are on FB???????
@@martycoomber7897 Yes indeed. facebook.com/DaveinCanada
@@ScottRods I will be in touch soon ok
Looking real nice! Some mighty fine flashing.
I haven’t watched the video yet, but I already like it. 👍 I’ll be installing this turn signal soon, so I’m taking notes.
Wow, you are very, very close. 😉 Just take it one step at a time and it will happen.
They work! Nice job Dave.
Life saver sir thank you and very cool build
You've got the wiring beat now, your about to go for a cruise soon!
I like the American one with the stop light going out on the side the turn signal is activated
Nice job Dave the lights look great.
Nice getting the wiring under control !
Nice install and explained it very well! I was wondering if you can make a video on how you mounted struts for the trunk lid
Thanks
It was one of the first things I did on the project. Here you go... ua-cam.com/video/xR_V-V6OdP0/v-deo.html

Square tube is temporary, but not a bad idea.
Dave with a hat can clean up the wiring.

I think it's a Mastercraft from CT
Wow: If you get many more professional video tools, you won't make any more mistakes. wouldn't that be boring. Great work on the Light controls.
Did you ever get the indictors working on the actual switch? Mine work but when the key is off there is a dim light on the turn switch.
No, I never pursued that idea. I prefer them on the dash where I can see them.
Very nice video. Thanks for the upload. How bright are those small signal lights in the front?
Thank you. They are not as bright as I would like. I will be upgrading them when I can find something a bit bigger.
Ya got me, I totally thought you were gonna tuck the signals in the bumper cutouts....they look great where ya put’em...which reminds me...are you going to have bumpers?
I think that is where Dave is going to put the smaller headlights he has.
Yes, I want bumpers, if I can find a pair.
Scott Rods Cool...pair of originals? Or something flashy from the 50’s massaged and customized to fit?
@@1Also Something as close to original as possible.
Scott Rods Yikes....Good Hunting...Vintage 60’s VW bumpers might be a cheap and easy alternative...or just a couple of big ole Chrome bumper guards in the cutouts...like a couple of fangs
Really like the signals , nice placement and cool looking for sure!!!! Do you have bumpers for it????
No bumpers yet. very hard to find a pair that will suit.
Scott Rods I have a friend with a set of 40 Pontiac bumpers they are in good shape no dents but some chrome peeling,
@@cameronbyrnesgarage8397 Sounds perfect, get me a price please.
front indicators aren't very practical but they are very stylish.
How are they not practical? People coming towards you need to know where you're going...
@@19chev81 I'm no saying front indicators in general aren't practical I'm saying the ones he installed aren't. They are very small.
Hold up wiper yep subed
Watched and had same issues with mine using the blue installed on my 29 mode A
You should have had Dave with the hat take out the trash so you could have got right to work. Nice work on the lights. What type of wiper system will you be using?
You'll find out on the next video.
Dave with a hat might throw out too much.
Missed this one.... I was in Trouble for shaving my Kat...! banned from the net, for a week.(who would ban ME?)
good job, my problem was the flashers too
I have installed mine and for some reason the whole unit gets very warm and my red light in the arm stays on the whole time any idea what I did wrong
Sounds like you might have the brake light wire hooked up the wrong way round. Just a guess.
DJI om3 they take abit getting used to but cool . Ps just don't drop it .
I still haven't figured out how to put the camera on it without everything flopping about like a freshly caught fish hahaha.

@@NZMOPAR Thanks bud, great tip.
@@ScottRods no worries Dave
No paint but turn signals 😂
Where in Ontario are you from?
Hamilton

Some people enjoy building a mastepiece, but I prefer driving, so I didn't spend nearly as much time as I should have, lol.

Glasgow was calling you in the opening scene.💧💧💧💧💧💧💧
6 volt, 8 volt, 12 volt? does it matter?
I'm not sure about that. If you fit something designed for a certain voltage to something different, you risk blowing fuses or starting fires.
Hi By chance are you Scott from Ho trains? If u r beam me up Scotty
Yes, guilty as charged.
