Default Flasher Beeper

Hi,
Could someone please advise me how to connnect a beeper to a 6 volt flasher with the
X-Power
L - Load
P - Pilot
flasher setup?

I intend to install an electronic flasher to permit my LED taillites to work, but I would like to have the beeper function when activated.

Thanks.

If you buy the Logo Lite system, the beeper is built in. It sounds like a cricket
chirping loudly----kinda neat, JMHO.

I have used the beepers from Radio Shack.About $3.and they are LOUD.However,you can regulate the noise level by putting a piece of tape over the hole the sound comes out.Covering half the hole truly gives you half the sound.I experimented until I got what I wanted in an MGTD kitcar.Those beepers were not polarity sensitive,and marked 3 to 28 volts.I had to use two as my car had been wired with a two prong flasher in the power line,with no pilot light.So I used two in the outgoing wires.

Glenn, yes. You could also wire two indicator lamps (left & right) directly to the left/right output wires from the signal unit. Or do what I do. When the wife complains, just pull over and say you drive.
