Wiring a Buzzer to the Indicator.
By: Rory Date: June 25, 2015, 6:16 am
---------------------------------------------------------
I want to wire a buzzer to buzz when the indicators are
indicating so I thought I'd ask has anybody here done that, what
did they use and how did they do it?
I have a 5 wire Tex Magna stalk and a 3 pin flasher unit.
Thanks.

Depending on the buzzer - most are 2 wires - fitting is very
simple.
But are you really sure ?
I have removed several....

Yes I'm sure, I can't see the light flashing during a sunny day
and when it rains it's hard to see through my glasses! ;D

Sorry - can't help with the colours as our LR's have home made
looms and those are... eh.. different.
Sure a grown up will come by to help soon

Have added one to mine.
Had to wire in a couple of diodes so operation only affects one
indicator side .
Placed mine under the cover in rear tub and wired each sides
indicator wire to a diode then to the buzzer then other side to
earth.
For ease I bought two of these which made it very simple to
install.

Those buzzers work well in a series, I wired one up to the low
oil light on the Tdi lightweight as it kept blowing it's oil
cooler hoses off. :wanker: :haha:

I wired one to my S1 and just wired it across the light so when
the light flashes the irritating buzzer sounds,

Hi,
VEHICLE WIRING SUPPLIES (I think that's their name) used to.list
these buzzwords, probably still do. Their paper catalogue is
worth having.
Memory says they work off the repeater terminal, and mine was
uni-directional .... nothing happened if it was wired wrong way
round.
Mine finished up being used as an audible "test lamp". I now use
an old 12 volt tyre inflater that chunters but does not pump.

Often thought about implanting a vibrating device into the seat
back, silent but you would feel the intermittent vibration when
the lights flash.

I used to know this gay bloke with a Series 2a, I can just
imagine him rigging something similar, tho possibly with a dildo
operated by a lucas switch on the dash........
