I can't figur out how to isolate the hazards from the turn signals so that the turn signals will not come on when the key is in the off position. | | | | | Joined: Jul 2001 Posts: 3,887 Cruising in the Passing Lane | | Cruising in the Passing Lane Joined: Jul 2001 Posts: 3,887 | well, considering the "hazard lights" are just a different function of the turn signals, using all the same circuitry and the same flasher, it seems real unlikely that what you want is possible ... the only power input to that system is to the flasher unit, if the flasher is powered for one, it's powered for all .... the only way you can separate the 2 functions is with 2 separate systems - 2 flashers

I've had it wired for constant power before the truck was painted, but now I can't remember how it was done. | | | | | Joined: Jul 2001 Posts: 3,887 Cruising in the Passing Lane | | Cruising in the Passing Lane Joined: Jul 2001 Posts: 3,887 | not sure how the lights would be wired to prevent the blinker function from feeding thru the hazard side, but the basic thing required would be the blinker + terminal wired via the ignition switch so it only has power when the key is on, and the hazard flasher + terminal wired to something that's not switched, hot all the time - which of course leaves you open to finding your battery run flat when something messes up  Bill | | | | | Joined: Mar 2007 Posts: 19 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Mar 2007 Posts: 19 | yea, I thought about it killing the battery. I think I'm going to get the power from the ON position of the key.I'll just have to turn the key on if I want the flashers to work. I would hook to the battery wire on the switch, but then if I leave a signal light on overnight..... the battery will die down. | | |
