Buzzer for Signal Lights

[51woodie]

Others may have installed an indicating buzzer for their accessory signals, but I thought I would add my information. At 70 years, my ears don't work so good, and I couldn't hear that little click from the #535 flasher unit over the thundering roar of the stock single exhaust in my '46 coupe. I have a United Pacific 5007R signal switch with a #535 flasher unit. I purchased a 6V DC mini buzzer from Radio Shack (P/N RSH2730793) for $4.95.) I connected the black lead to the #7 blue lead to the flasher, and the red lead to ground. (running 6V + ground) Works so well I had to put a piece of tape over the unit to quiet it down a bit. So, no more will the old guy confuse other drivers as I have in the past, as they wait for me to turn! My Grandson's driving Instructor asked him what it means when an approaching vehicle has the right signal on. He replied, "it means the signal light works". Learned that from Grandpa.
