From a 1996 email from Norm, the following are part numbers for the
headlight flasher.
Also, and more important, Electrical Expert Theo Smit, provided a wiring
diagram for the headlight flasher system, with relays, to provide the
proper electrical circuit for a high energy demand on the wiring system.
Larry
Larry,
John Hess forwarded your cry for help. The Lucas part number for the
European turn signal switch is 34981-E. I have also found 34981-D and I
have a box which is marked 34982, but I'm not sure it carried the proper
unit.
Hope this helps,
Norm
