So what is the difference that makes the 94-97 Integra have an alternating signal (front bulb to the side marker to the front bulb etc) vs the 98-01 that just have a single bulb flashing?

Mainly I'm asking if there is a way to convert the 98-01 Integra to have the signals flash like the 94-97.

its possible to make the 98-01 alernate like the 94-97 buy using a relay.

 

What kind of relay? For the blinker? Can you be more specific? Thanks.

 

i forgot the exact way to do it but if you place a relay between the power of the front turn signal, it will alternate.

 

I didn't use a relay for mine. All I did was take the ground wire for the sidemarker...and connect it to the signal wire for the turn signal on the front bulb. worked great!

 

bump, i asked this like a year ago and forgot about it. it seems like only some 94-97's do that though its weird. what kind of relay are you speaking of?

 

well, I didn't use a relay...read my post above and you can do it that way, if you haven't already.

 

heh...i posted before i saw your post, thx for the info.

 

yea you will notice that when the lights are ON they alternate, when the headlights/parking lights are off, they flash at the same time

 

So is i possible to just swap the 94-97 integra flasher relay with the 98-01 one and make it work?

 

anything is possible if you dream

 

NO relay is needed. I just moved the wires around on my 94 so that the side bulb never flashes now, only the front one (since I have sidemarkers that flash).

Basically, if you take the 2 wires from a 194 bulb, and connect one wire to the POWER wire of the front parking light filament, and connect the other wire to the POWER wire of the front turn signal filament, it will operate as it does stock (flashing alternately when parking lights are on).

What you want is to have the side bulb to get power only from the parking light filament, and have the other wire connected to ground. That way it will operate like 98+ signals.

 

I want to make the 98+ like the 94-97. How should I modify the wiring?

A relay would seem much much easier if it works.

 

no, trust me, a relay would be WAY more work.

Here's what you do if you want it like 94-97:

On the wires running to the 194 wedge bulb (small one in the side of the bumper light), cut the GROUND wire, and connect (splice) it to the front 1157's bright filament POWER wire. That's all there is to it.

 

There is a flasher relay under the dash near the fuses. It simply plugs in and out. I have replaced it before.

I'm simply asking, if it is possible just to get a 94-97 Integra flasher relay and use it. I'm guessing the answer is no.

anything is possible with a little money ... it just depends on how much you would want to spend... anything is possible these days.. lol

No, because the 94-97 flashing pattern is determined by the wiring, not the relay.

Like I said, cut the 194's ground wire and splice it into the 1157's high filament power wire, and you're done. That's it, no relays needed. It takes NO money except for the cost of splice connectors and maybe some electrical tape, which you may have laying around already.

 

no 94-97 integras are better....period.

huh? what does that have to do w/ what I posted?

 

Do you know off the topic of your head which wires are what?

Thanks for all the help so far.

Do all 94-97's have alternating turn signals? My '96 didn't, and I've seen a few that don't flash in that way. Was it only during certain years? I thought it was kinda cool looking before, never seen it on a '98+

 

Are you sure it didn't? It only does that when the parking lights are on.

I rewired mine to behave like 98+ because the alternating bumper lights looked wierd w/ the OEM sidemarkers on the fenders.

Hmmm...is that only/just when the parking lights are on? If that's the case, then maybe mine did, but I still don't think it did that.

 

When lights are off, both bulbs flash at the same time in 94-97 bumper lights. If the parking and/or headlights are on, then they flash alternately.
