1949 3100 6V. Bought an LED flasher for my Grote 966-4 turn signal. Everything worked fine including the pilot light for a few days and then pilot went out, signal lights still work and flasher clicks. This has happened using two different flashers of the same brand. Using a #51 bulb as the indicator pilot light. Wonder if I should use a #55 instead. Wiring diagram for flasher calls for a 3w bulb (#55) whereas the #51 is less than 2w. Would that difference cause the pilot lead to fail due to the less resistance to ground? Hard to believe both flasher units would fail in the same way.
