@Carlos G posted:I've always used the high beam light for my back up light. I can see that I have the high beams on, that's happening out front. I've driven around in my truck with the BU light just shining away because I forgot it was on. It's much brighter than the one in the 550 though. It's dark around here.
I just might also use only one light for the signals and use the third for the alternator. It'll save me the trouble of drilling another hole. Doesn't the alternator require a regular bulb though?
That's exactly what I was saying. Three lights: 1st one on left, alternator. Second center one gets hooked up to the flasher output so it works on both L and R. The one on the right is the oil idiot light.
Yes, the alternator needs a resistive load to both make the voltage regulator work AND light the light key on, engine NOT running. Call me tomorrow, I have specifics.
