Update, thanks to your inspiration, I now have hazard lights on my 1968 Cooper S.

That’s great! 👍

[@mully89]

Fantastic helpful info and nice clear presentation, thank you 👍

[@jodiethemorrisminortraveller]

Glad you enjoyed it!

Very good video, very clear description. Thanks a lot. I took possession of my first Morris Minor last Sunday ( 26/2/23 ) and this job is on my to do list.

[@jodiethemorrisminortraveller]

Best of luck!

[@XsullenX]

This is super. I've just used this as the basis for my hazards system. Really well explained, thank you!

[@jodiethemorrisminortraveller]

Thanks! Much appreciated 👍

[@keithgarland3404]

very neat installation, well explained.

[@jodiethemorrisminortraveller]

Glad you liked it!

[@paullorman8924]

Great work. Was looking to do this to my '68 mini, will follow your lead!

[@jodiethemorrisminortraveller]

Thanks, much appreciated.

The screwdriver joke was hilarious 😂

Definitely something I am considering doing to my Morris Minor "Xavier" but I do use the heater control under the dashboard so I do not have convenient holes to mount a switch. Drilling new holes is not something I would ever consider doing so I am contemplating using velcro to attach the switch bracket. I will need to experiment to see if that is secure enough.

[@mikeuk1954]

What an excellent walk through. 👍

[@jodiethemorrisminortraveller]

Thanks Mike. Much appreciated!

[@georgebathgate3974]

Another great well explained video.

[@jodiethemorrisminortraveller]

Thanks George 👍

[@noelkearney538]

Have you done the alternator conversion 😊 nice simple vid…

[@jodiethemorrisminortraveller]

Thanks! Yes, I have. Thinking of changing to one that looks like a dynamo to have a more original look.

[@geoffburrill9850]

Nice vid. I personally like to solder any brass connectors but crimping should be OK.

[@jodiethemorrisminortraveller]

Thanks!

[@BillBright-k3p]

I note you mention the links a 21W X 4 flasher unit but no mention to fit it in the video?

[@jodiethemorrisminortraveller]

Fits the same way as the LED version

[@BillBright-k3p]

@@jodiethemorrisminortraveller Do you mean to fit the 4 X 21W flasher unit Instead of the 2 X 21 W ? Bill.

[@jodiethemorrisminortraveller]

Yes

[@6cwtvan969]

Hi is the led flasher relay used with original bulbs or does it require led indicator bulbs

[@jodiethemorrisminortraveller]

If you don’t have LED indicators you will need a higher powered flasher unit. There are links to both types of flasher unit in the video description. However I thoroughly recommend changing to LEDs. Brighter, use less electricity, last almost forever and very easy to swap.

[@melvynmartin6781]

Hi, where did you get the hazard switch from I can't seem find it on ebay?

[@glennlingard7851]

Mmm bugger this, l lost it as soon as 5:12 in, am leaving things well alone thank you lol😬

[@jodiethemorrisminortraveller]

I suppose electrical modifications aren’t for everybody. You could always have a third party fit them.

[@glennlingard7851]

@@jodiethemorrisminortraveller probably lol, l think l could manage it if l concentrated a little more, thanks again for the upload 🙂

[@jodiethemorrisminortraveller]

You’re welcome

Hi can you help me please i am getting electric shocks from the HT leads they are new leads thank you for any help,

[@jodiethemorrisminortraveller]

You shouldn’t touch them when the car’s running.

[@numbersix1908]

Can you do ours? please!!

[@jodiethemorrisminortraveller]

Unfortunately not. But there are companies who will.
