Had Martin over for a few hours today, to bring back my bike trailer after unloading his new motor and gearbox into his garage.
We recently took out the one rear indicator unit as he wants to fit recessed indicators as per originals, which his truck does not have. After taking it out, we could not get the light to work again, so after resoldering the wires etc, it turned out the one wire on the switch was loose.
The next job Martin did for me (I made tea and coffee) was to wire in a Beeper into the indicator circuit.
My truck has no indicator stalk on the steering column, having a three position swith under the dash, I have on occasion driven well beyond a turning with the indicator merrily flashing away.
So now it will drive me nuts when I use it, necessitating the fast switching off of it.
The way its fitted, the beeper is now under the dash and muted to a mildly irritating level.
Here is a demo.....
One of the other things we figured out was that my truck must have been a Manual truck at some time in its life before the current incarnation.
We also tested the new compressor to see if it had an auto pressure switch.
Goes to 100psi and then stops filling.
I have still not quite figured out where the pressure goes when the pressure switch goes, as the motor does not stop......
