GLAD TO SEE THAT EVERYONE WHO HAS REPLIED IS INTERESTED. BUT, I STILL WHOULD LIKE TO HAVE MORE INPUT FROM AS MANY NATO USERS AS POSSIBLE. I WANT TO MAKE SURE THIS IS THE WAY THE MAJORITY OF PEOPLE WOULD LIKE THE LIGHTS TO WORK.
THANKS,

Lets do it! would be interested in either a complete ready to go kit or something that would be DIY. I don't want to modify the lights though.

Hey Nate... did you figure out how to keep the systems sentry from triggering a false "rear lamp out" when it is operating?
Other than that, Your idea of the multiple operation modes sounds great. Looks like you have all the bases covered.

JEFF,
TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTION, NO I HAVEN'T YET FIGURED THAT OUT. BEFORE I DO I NEED TO KNOW HOW THE "BULB OUTAGE MODULE" WORKS. JUDGING BY LOOKING AT THE WDG, IT APPEARS THAT IT USES CURRENT SENSING TO DETECT A BAD BULB. I WILL NEED TO KNOW FOR SURE BEFORE DESIGNING THAT PART OF THE CKT THOUGH. IF IT WILL REQUIRE TO MUCH CIRCUITRY TO MAKE IT WORK PROPERLY, I WILL JUST FIND A WAY TO TRICK IT IN THE SEQUENTIAL MODES TO PREVENT A FALSE OUTAGE INDICATION. AND, LEAVE IT TO WORK NORMALLY WHEN THE FLASHER IS SELECTED TO NORMAL MODE. IF YOU KNOW ANY MORE ABOUT THE MODULE IT WOULD BE APPRECIATED.
THANKS,

I'd be interested, too. Agree with JeffK's about the System Sentry and also don't want to do any drilling on my tail lights if not necessary.
Just got me thinking, what's the oldest car with sequential tail lights? Wasn't it TBirds?

Nate,
I like your idea, especially if there was a way to adapt it to my '84. I have a Gold Wing motorcycle with many simialr plug in type modules for the lighting system. Keep the idea fires kindled, that's how Bill Gates made it!

Like the idea, sounds great, and I love the look on other Fords. So, if the price is reasonable, I would love to grab a kit. And yeah, Radio Shack is abundant locally.
