Addendum: The blinker/flashers use a dual element lamp, also.
FYI: Tail/brake and blinker/flasher use the same lamp. By a pack
and throw in the glove box.

Anyone with a newer vehicle that has purchased a receiver
knows that they also have to purchase a trailer module to
correct for the "new" way of doing things.

Also, some European vehicles flash the brake light when the
blinkers are on, so this is not something that is unusual.

I don't know if I'm in a particular foul mood, but I'm really in the
mood to bust someone in the balls. Must be football season
again and my distaste for the BCS is coming to the fore.

They use a dual element lamp for parking and brakes. They
have three wires going to them. One is a ground. I'll let you
guess what the other two are for.

I do agree that those quick connectors are junk, though.

that'll work if you want the FUCKER flashing everytime you make a left turn.

it makes you look like a moron?
