- FLASHER & BULB REPLACEMENT CAUTIONS: 1
) If 2 bulbs per side of car (1 front, 1 rear) flash during turn signal operation, "2 Bulb" flasher is required. If 3 bulbs per side of car (1 front, 2 rear) are used, "3 Bulb" flasher is required. Be sure to install correct type flasher according to number of bulbs in system or inoperative system, shortened bulb life, and rapid flashing rate will result.NOTE: Some manufacturers recommend use of "series" type flashers only. Do not use "magnetic" type.
- Heavy duty miniature bulbs are used in many cars. These bulbs require use of heavy duty type flasher since all components of system must be compatible. All bulbs in system (including dash panel indicators) must be the same type, that is, either "standard" or "heavy duty miniature" (see table below for equivalent bulb numbers); and flasher must be the same type as the bulbs.CAUTION: If bulbs and flasher are intermixed, abnormal flashing rates will result, and bulb and flasher life will be shortened.
