1954 Parking Brake flasher

[David W.]

Where can I find a schematic diagram for wiring up the flasher for the parking (emergency) brake warning light? Could use info on the proper mounting of the flasher. Thanks

The 57 is similar.....
The mounting is the same on the parking arm.....
One wire goes to the flasher....
One wire goes to the switched power side....

BTW the wires should be black as shown in the photo. Not tan like the repro wiring harnesses. They weren't tan until 55 12V.

Hi, Troy...many thanks for the info and the clear picture. I was looking at the repro wires which are tan as you said.

You can make your own black wires if yours are bad.

The flasher light socket must have been made for some other GM vehicle because the wires are way longer than they need to be for a Corvette.
