Turn signal "mod"

Ok, did the search thing and came up with nothing about a signal mod. I'm not getting full battery voltage to my signals. Mainly the rears as those are the ones I'm most concerned about being seen.

Is is the a cheap, don't really care about fast or easy, but cheap relay or wiring modification I can do to get closer to full batt voltage at my signals?
 
I think the not-getting-full-voltage-so-use-a-relay is usually meant for the igniotion coils. Search for coil relay mod.



If voltage is so low that t/signals not working, that is quite low.

.
 
I would look into getting LED replacements rather and just clean up the connections before doing a relay mod for the signals.

You could do a relay mod like a Easter Beaver for everything, that would avoid the voltage drops from the ignition switch from everything.
 
My signals work, just not as bright as when I hit them with full batt voltage. I already have the ignition and brake light relays. Don't really want to add 2 more relays in there if I don't have too.

Think this his winter I'm just going to rewire a lot of things.

There are really only three main circuits ; Signal, Ignition and Headlamp.

If you swap out your signals for LED then 1 relay for Ignition and one for Headlamp is all you need.

In fact are very simple modes to do a headlamp cutout while cranking.
