RedHot71 Posted September 17, 2019 Report Posted September 17, 2019 Ordered 12 volt conversion for my 1951 2 1/2 ton dump truck from Vintage Auto. Taking care of all the lites now. My issue is my front fender mounted turn signals are all rusted out so I removed them. Original fixtures have (1) lead, new 12 volt lites I bought has (2). What do I do with the 2nd wire. (1) is red/ the other is brown. Also, anyone know where to purchase 12 volt (1) wire fixtures? Really want to put this truck back to work. Quote

stylesadamson Posted September 17, 2019 Report Posted September 17, 2019 old one was grounded through the fixture Quote
MBF Posted September 22, 2019 Report Posted September 22, 2019 Check to see if it contains a dual filament bulb.. if it does one wire will be for the turn signal and the other for a parking light. In that case it would still ground through the housing. Quote
