Combined 6V indicator switch and flasher unit

[BernieParticipant]

Folks,

Have any of you come across an indicator switch/flasher like this, please ….

?????  Unfortunately, it no longer works (operator error, sadly!) but I have never seen another one before and I can’t find anything like it on the interweb.

I would like  to replace it with a similar unit but, if necessary, I shall revert  to something less rare.

Any and all contributions will be gratefully received.

Ta.

Hi Bernie,

Not exactly what you are looking at and B….Y expensive but from early 2CV. It might give you a lead.

It would appear to be a common 50’s French type thing

Sorry, that one is 12V

Roger,

Thanks for your efforts.  You might guess I have trawled the web so I have seen those you suggest but not yet found anything which fits the bill exactly.

If I do eventually go down this type of route I shall be more inclined to go for a mechanical (clockwork) unit rather than an electrical or electronic one.  (I have had a number of clockwork units on previous cars and always found them reliable).

In the meantime, I have fitted a temporary two-way “flick” switch so I can indicate manually and ordered some nichrome wire to see if I can breathe life back  into my unit.  Trouble us my eyesight ain’t what it was so I may be struggling on that front.  Hey-ho, say larvae!

Thanks again for your kind help,

B……..
