Hello all.
I was going to rewire all the lights, but i am not sure what these lights should do. I have 2 red in the rear sides, and 2 yellow on the front sides. Shoud they just be running lights only, or do they also blink for turn signals?
Thanks!

mine were originally hooked up running only one wire and grounding with the skin. they only operated as running lights. when i rewired i wired them the same though i ran a ground to each light as well. you could in theory make them blink, i suppose its up to you.
can anyone else confirm or deny they are usually just running lights?

Running lights. Would be hard to make them blink; they're run by the TM wire (tail marker) rather than the RT/LT wires....
Also, they have a single filament bulb and socket, so it's a one purpose fixture: either running lights or blinking turns.

^ Agreed. Mine are running lights, single filament bulbs )1156). I strongly suspect this was the original intent. If you wanted it to be a signal light as well, I think the smart way would be to run extra wires and swap over to a dual filament bulb (1157)
