Hi all, have done a search but cannot find an answer. I am putting a new loom in the car and want the rear lights to work as factory (flashing brake lights).  So studying the factory diagram some wiring does  not make sense

If you look at the stop lamp  switch it appears to join a white, pink and violet together? The pink and violet go to the stop,rear turns left and right lights. I am hoping someone can help me understand how with this wired this way that the right or left indicator  would not both together when just indicating right or left?  I get how it operates if you were braking.

Thanks grant

Off that drawing black is your brakes
Violet is right
Pink is left
They should  come off the blinker switch on the column seperate .
I hope ive helped I confuse myself sometimes

Brake light feed power supply white wire goes to the column switch assay through two sets of contacts back out to the violet and pink wires back to the stop light globes when the indicators are operated depending what side is switched this supply is opened  and the flasher supply yellow is switched  to either the violet or the pink depending what side is selected. It all takes place within the column switch assembly. The diagram you are looking at is a bit deceiving. Mickrat

Yep yep thanks mickrat that makes sense. Diagram as you say a bit confusing.
Thanks also pete
