[TR] 1972 Triumph TR6 - blinker problem

[DAVID MASSEY]

My TR6 is also running LED rear and incandescent in front.  My TR8 is running LED's all around but the dash indicators work completely differently.

 I believe I am running rear LEDs and front incandescents for my turn signals too, as well as a LED for my blinker indicator in the dash (so I can see it blinking in the sun).
They electronics all seem to play better together with a couple incandescents in the loop, and I can track what is going on on in front of me better then behind, so the brighter rear lights make sense.
Will just add that Randall (TR3Driver) was a whiz at this stuff, and if you ever had an electrical problem he had a fix.
Many years ago I had a turn signal problem.with.my Ford Ranger, the Ford Ranger forum was no help whatsoever, Randall gave me a part number for a flasher I could get at the local car part shop, problem solved.

This makes no sense to me.  Apparently in the last few weeks I replaced the front bulbs with LEDs.  The rear already had them.

 

Replacing the front bulbs with analog bulbs fixed the problem, and, as a bonus, the green trafficator light is now working.  I haven’t seen that for years.

 

Now the blinkers work as they should.
