While this is on both my Model T and 48 F2 (I have the same flashers right now on both and both are doing the same), do I need to install a resister on the power input or?

Thanks
Ok! We all have been posting on this thread trying to help! A 3 prong flasher wiring sketch is attached for a 12 volt negative ground system. Adjust it to fit your 6 volt conditions and make up a small test jig. Test the flasher off the car on a test jig! If it works, you have more work to do, If not Snyders are good folks, they will take care of you!

Ok. The drawing is how it is hooked up on both cars. I'll do some more exploring on the issue.

Thank you everyone.
