I am trying to debug/fix turn signal wiring on a '53 3100 my wife just bought. It uses a Signal Stat 800. I have found great information on wiring these devices here on the site, but those all refer to original factory wiring on the Signal Stat switch. Unfortunately, a previous owner changed the wiring going to the switch and I have no idea which terminal on the switch is which. Anyone happen to have a key to this or a photo of the color coded wiring on the terminals?

Thanks.

Time for a new switch


If your determined to repair that switch you can use the tech tip to decipher where the terminals go

https://www.stovebolt.com/techtips/turn_signal.htm


The last section of the tip gives instructions on how to chart out the terminals

Thanks DADS50 for the link to the tech tip. I did figure out the terminals, ran all new wiring to the switch and the lights, and now have turn signals and hazards all around.

Good save!!

I used that tech tip about 10 years ago to save a off brand switch that was in my 50

The tech tip is written by CLETIS, Charlie Hardin who pass away a few years back. Still helping us stovebolters.
