Hello I am custom wiring my 1968 Ford F100 with an easyguard car alarm. I have used these before and had good luck with them. The question I have is; my instructions say to hook my parking light trigger wires to my left and right turn signal wires. I did this but obviously it will only flash my front signals as my back ones are controlled by the brake lights. I want the back ones to flash also. If I tie the back ones in to that wire though my front parking lights will come on when I press the brake pedal. I don’t want that to happen so what is the best way to accomplish this? I was thinking of using a diode, but I’m not sure how to determine what size diode I will need. Or if there is a better way please let me know. Thank you.

How did you wire things on the other cars on that circuit ?
I'm thinking it's a misprint or something did not get translated properly.
The hookups to the exterior lights should be on the parking lights and not the turn signal/brake lights.
I'm thinking on some of the overseas cars they had left and right side parking light circuits and maybe what you have was designed for that with two outputs but still would not wire to the turn signals but the parking lights.
