    Can anyone refer me to a wiring diagram for a Spartan model SCS -3R column mounted turn signal unit? I have one that was in working condition that I need to integrate into my new wiring.

    Thanks!

    Thanks for the info. I just got back from a 4 day road trip that took me to Baltimore. Once I have a chance to look over the info and sort things out I'll share what I came up with.

    I have at least 4 different color schemes for the sparton SCS (signal control switch) but I think the letter designation after the SCS is what changes the color of the wires and is what causes the confusion. Let me know if they will do you any good.

    nickmil In mothballs.

    I have one for sale right now. Tomorrow I can check with an ohmmeter and figure out which color is what.

    I experimented around a bit today and figured it out. I found a pix on the web with the colors labeled but I think the guy who made it up is color blind. I've tested all the connections on mine and can verify that these are correct for MY Spartan SCS-3R Unit:
    >Red to Flasher +12 volts
    >Brown - connects to brake switch. Feed +12 volts to other brake switch terminal
    >Black - Front Right TS
    >Yellow - Front Left TS
    >Orange - Right rear turn and brake
    >Blue - Left rear turn and brake

    Note:

    Red to flasher (will not appear on the turn signal wiring) should also be fused.
    Brown - connects to brake switch (receives power from stop switch and feeds it to the stop circuit in the turn sig switch).
    Black - (should be small wire that connects to the "P" terminal on the flasher). For the green light in Sparton.
    White - (should connect to the "L" terminal on the flasher).

    This matches one of the four that I have. I will label this one SCS-3R. Tnx for the info.
