40 Series Faulty Flasher unit

The flasher unit in my 1981 Bj42 appears to have carked it. It dosn't appear to like most flasher units i have seen on previous cars (2wd) and i am guessing it would be expensive to replace using the same is there another option like E.g one made by hella or narva.

Thanks Dazz

a aftermarket one should be able to be adapted on, how many terminals has it got???

Mav it has 2 terminals
I went to autobahn on the weekend he recons that if a fit an after market in wont last long when off roading. I was not convinced though i think it was all to hard for him.................Thanks Dazz

ya can get the flasher from rare spares they have an after market one which matches and as for the auto barn guy hes full of shit wouldnt know what it is or where it goes for peanuts !!

Thanks Hj47
Any idea how much and welcome also

Those guys at Autobarn are getting less helpful every time I hear of them.
I stopped visiting them a while back when an item they orderred for me came in as the wrong part 3 times in a row.
Finally got it in 6 weeks after the first one was due.

I think the service in most places is gettin worse I have another Large chain auto shop less than five minutes from home I would rather drive another 20 mins away to hopefully get some better service. Do they really think think crap customer service keeps customers coming back......I dont think so.
mmmmmm I feel better now........Dazz ;D

the two terminal flasher cans are the simplest you can get and any two terminal flasher can will do, you can get them nearly anywhere, as for the autobarn guy the saying goes pay peanuts and you get monkeys 8) 8) 8)

i payed about 15 - 20 bucks for mine
i find that our local repco is verry handy i walked it to one on a sunday arvo and got a new set of swivel hub seals something that i didnt think i would get

It is getting to be a big problem, shops get bigger and service goes down.

Bring back the small personal service shops.

Thanks alot guys
