Re: CJ hazard lights
 
I was explaining an easy way to hook up flashers, apparently he has
turn signals without flasher capability.

Re: CJ hazard lights
 

In two posts dated today, "ezeppelin" specifies that it is an `81 CJ-7 so
4-way flashers would have been factory original safety equipment and
mandatory on inspection, and that he's suffering with an aftermarket
steering column that seems to have no provision for 4-way flashers.
Hence the need to bodge.

Re: CJ hazard lights
 
I think I understand, my point was that one should create flashers from the
turn signals, not the running lamps - as you seemed to have suggested.

And, it turns out the OP has an '81 that has emergency flashers already
built in, all he needs is to figure out how to make them come on because he
hasn't got a button on the side of the steering wheel column.
