Bare essentials wiring.

I have stripped every wire from my interior and have started with my own wiring due to some fire to the stock harness and my progression with this car as a track only "drift car"

Need some wiring advice as to how to wire up these turn signals with an Orielly 3 prong turn signal relay.


I have the wires marked coming out of the cluster here.

And of course the three wires coming from the actual turn signal connector 12v grnd and signal.


And heres my relay


I am slightly confused on the turn signal wiring. How exactly to I arrange these wires to make these turns signals work like "normal".

I am not super wiring savy with diagrams, but I have some decent general knowledge.

I would look at the wire diagram for the original and try and copy it as best as possible. Why does a drift only car need turn signals?

Well I have none of the stock wiring. I don't have the stock flasher unit or anything so its all just kind of jumble in relation.

And I want turn signals so I can drive it to get an alignment. Even though its slightly counter against my claim of a "track car"

Race pak smartwire. Just installed one on my track day/weekend car. Eliminates all fuses and relays a simple ground trigger for everything. It really does simplify the harness a ton.

There should be a little diagram on the top, or little notes by each prong. From the interwebs, I found X=Battery In, L=Power feed to the switch, P=Indicator Light.
