Blinker question...

[dr.ona]

Can a regular blinker relay from a car replace the one that is for a 1986 Honda Spree? Mine is shot and I just found out that there $47 to replace.....kinda spendy. Has anyone replaced one with an over the counter relay from NAPA? I'm not talking about one from some new huge 4x4 Ford pickup...maybe something from a smaller car.

they always worked for me. so i would say yes.

Sweet!
Just did it and it works...saved a bunch of $$ there.

Thanks!

Did you have to splice anything, etc to get this to work, or does it plug in?

[dr.ona]

Plugged right in...

Only downfall is with many of those you cannot hear the clicking when the turn signals are activated.

I suspect a lot of mods could be done. Several years ago, I had a 350 Honda with a bad coil. I put a Ford coil on it, strapped to the frame with a large radiator clamp. Worked great.
