1960 VW Beetle Semephores (Repair)

Post by Stoof Performance »

Good morning Everyone

I need advise or assistance please, I'm restoring a 60 beetle and the 6V Semephores are not working, can someone advise who could repair them in Gauteng or SA, and if so at what cost? , I've converted the vehicle to 12V.

I think Grandslam in CPT can assist in repairing/rewiring them.

You can use a resistor 50Watt 1 Ohm to drop your voltage for the semiphores (https://www.mantech.co.za/Stock.aspx?Qu ... +50w+1kand)
I think the same one is used for the wiper motor.
