I installed a Signal-Stat 900 7-wire turn signal switch per the included directions. I used the 500 flasher included with the Signal-Stat. My truck is 6-volt positive ground. I built a relay panel for the rear turn/brake lights and taillights (and electric fuel pump) because I have multiple light fixtures on each side. My truck is a fire engine and I wanted upper and lower lights. The turn/brake filaments illuminate with either the turn signal switch or brake pedal, but do not flash.
>I ran a jumper from the flasher "L" terminal to the signal input of the left turn/brake relay (bypassing the Signal-Stat). The filament illuminated but did not flash.
>I moved the jumper to the output of the left turn/brake relay (bypassing both the Signal-Stat and the relay) and the filament flashed.

I hope someone can lead me toward a solution.
