hey mike, i looked at the 12v relay on my 64 and it doesnt have the # terminals but uses letters instead.
this is how it looks...
.....P.....
X.........L
X= from turn signal mechanism on steering column
P= from speedo
L= from fuse box

thanks silas, I got the signals all working with the 6V flasher. They just flash a little fast, cant seem to make the 12V one work, I think I tried every combo possible......
I see on wiring diagrams 12V signals also have a 9 pin switch of some sort, maybe the 3 prong 12V flasher I have doenst work for my application?
-
The 9 pin setup is just a flintstones way to run the emergency flasher in late 6V and early 12V cars. If a 3 pin 6V flasher works I'd suspect your 12V 3 pin flasher is nfg. At worst it should work but not run the dash light.

thats exactly what mine does. sometimes i feel like an old man when i realized ive left the signal on for a minute or two haha
