On my previous post on the hazard light subject I was enquiring if there was an updated wiring diagram for post '74 vehicles. Well behold there is! MR510-60a. Thanks to Chris at aussiefrogs.
The wiring diagram answered my dilemma about the problem of feeding a permanent or accessory live to the flasher unit. The problems were if (1) you supplied the flasher unit with a permanent live – you could inadvertently leave your indicators flashing and (2) if you supplied the flasher unit with a ignition live – you could not use the hazards with the ignition switched off.
Citroëns answer? Use 2 flasher units one for the indicators and a second for the hazards. (If only I'd thought of that?)
The thread at aussiefrogs can be read here, and the diagrams can be downloaded (in French) from the previous blog - enjoy.
