I am still trying to think through some type of audio warning for lights being left on. On a Model A with a 6 volt alternator is there anywhere in the wiring where it is only hot when the engine is running. I have seen the posts that work with a generator by connecting ahead of the cutout, but I don't seem to think of a similar type location on a one post 6 volt alternator. I will probably settle for a little LED that is on when the headlights are on. Usually I have only forgot them when using the lights for daytime driving. Thanks for taking a look at the post.
