turn signal wire size
Any info on wire size for turn signals for a 6-volt system?
12, 14, or 16 gauge? Thanks Roger |

#14 on the Brakes and #16 on the Tail Lights (on the attached diagrams). Ford tended to use fairly small wire sizes IMHO, I would consider bumping them up a size.

Re: turn signal wire size
With the 6 volt system #14 would be fine.

Re: turn signal wire size
Wiring diagrams in '42-'48 Ford Manual confirm Jseery & others = 14 for stop; 16 for tail.
