Turn Signals
 

I would like to put turn signals on my A. I reworded it with a new loom but it did have turn signal wires included in the loom. I would like to buy a rocker type turn signal switch like they have on ATV’s and mount on dash. Buy a 6 volt flasher and mount under the dash. Then run wiring to 6volt LED lights mounted on front and rear. I have not been able to find a kit that is 6 volt..
Does anyone out there think it will work and if not how to do it without using the colum mounted switch.

S/M Electro- Tech, Inc. 763 780 2861 has a super nice turn signal kit. I have installed Five
so far, they work great and easy to install.

I believe this is the turn signals John is referring to. https://www.smelectrotech.com/turn-signal-systems

I wired my own. Obviously not as sophisticated as the one above but it serves my purposes.

Thanks for the link.

I have this turn signal installed. The really nice thing about it , I have a hidden spring loaded toggle switch behind the dash. The system is self canceling after 15-30 or 45 second unless you have brakes on. Then self cancels after your preselected time after brake release.

Hi I have used virtual same wiring and this is a simple system to install. The head lamps I have are non standard, have led lamps, and small park, and turn indicators in the lamp shell. I have a 12v system and electronic flasher, with a vintage type center off turn switch.

50: It all depends on your thinking. I put turn signals on my '29 rdstr. It is my own design and works well and is HAS TO BE SIMPLE as I designed it myself. Regular 6 v A system. Used standard A tail lights and fabricated 2 front bumper brackets for 5" amber lens lights as I wanted them to be seen. 6 v flasher from auto parts store and a spool of Model A wiring from Snyders. Toggle switch mounted to steering column. Spent about an hour looking at the car spaces where wire runs and drawing up a simple diagram. Fun to do yourself instead of someone's kit. Just a suggestion. Bill

Looking for a less expensive setup. This kit does not include lights. A flasher and a toggle switch would be a lot less.

I realize modern safety is important but to me I do hand signals as it's part of driving the model A experience!!!

I have been using a turn signal controller on my antique vehicles for many years that I consider to work very well and is easy to install. The unit is compact and easy to wire.
Go to https://www.smelectrotech.com/ and select products for a complete listing of features. This unit works on 6 or 12 volt positive or negative ground and can handle incandescent and LED lights. I have the control mounted behind the drivers side kick panel and use a momentary switch mounted hidden behind the dash as the directional switch. A column mounted lever type switch is also offered. The control has many functions that other units do not offer plus its made in USA.
