Turn Signals
 

Ok, found out that the reason the turn signals were not flashing is just what I thought was happening. The lamps were not drawing enough amps. Snyders confirmed it, and suggested putting a socket with a 21cp lamp in the circuit and color the lamp black so as not to be seen.
For less money and aggravation, I put a 10w 10 ohm resistor at the front bumper light on both sides. Flashes great and I can hear my flasher now. Problem Solved!

You can buy a low current flasher for a few bucks. They are building them for LED lights, only need 20mA to flash.

Wow, who carries them and what's the part numbers...Thanks, Great information.

I had the same issue with the Synder LED tail lights and ordered a flasher from Lambert Enterpises. I love the LED tail lights for my touring and coming home after dark. But while I was waiting for it to ship I rummaged around in my box of all things auto electrical and found several old swap meet three terminal 6 v flashers and kept trying different ones out in my car. I found one from Echlin that is working perfect with the LED's so now the one from Lambert Enterprises is my spare... It is not maked Heavy Duty like the ones that didn't work so well.

Also I wired in some Radio Shack 12 volt buzzers under my dash rail so I don't leave it flashing away after a turn... I couldn't get just one buzzer to work with the three terminal flasher so I used one per side. They are cheap. The 12 volt buzzer running off of the 6 volt is also just the right volume. It you wish you can cover the top with tape to quiet them down even more.

So ... with the 4-way flashers on you get the buzzers in stereo?

Re: Turn Signals
 

Stereo indeed.
I have my cowl lights being used for the front flasher lights and I tapped into the wiring for them. While wiring the buzzers up I tried them off of the brake / turn lights by picking the wrong wires. I found out quickly that buzzers that sound with your brake lights are really annoying! It was like having a stall warning in a Cessna.

To all who feel the lack of electronics in their A:
An electronic low current flasher ( 5V - 18V) with automatic deactivation
might help to get rid of the buzzer....

(please read all of the text there....)

If you dont need deactivation and want to keep the buzzer:

This flasher works from 20mA to 20 amps. I am using one on my A flashers and it works great. They are rated for 12 volts but mine is operating on 6volts. Pay attention to the polarity!!!!! Positive and negative MUST be correct. I built my own blinker wiring using a vintage blinker switch and it works great. It likely won't be plug-and-play with your wiring setup due to the positive ground. If you put a beeper ACROSS the flasher terminals you will only need one beeper. Once again, pay attention to polarity.
