Phil has a pretty ingenious solution, using two relays and one additional flasher. But with constant power going to the 700, the pilot light issue is still there. They'd be on continuously in L or R, but may function pretty much like originally intended, just not flash. It doesn't use intermittent power to the relay coils that bartamos objected to, but a constant latch-in to send flasher output to the brake light on the left or right.
On initial inspection, I like it.
John, your explanation helps on the 700 function, but I'm still unclear on where the pilot filament is connected. Is it between points C and D? The description on the face of the 700 that I posted says that a non-functioning pilot indicates a burnt out bulb on the opposite side. I still don't understand the magic of how that happens.
