I am looking to build a motorcycle dash indicator lamp flasher. It will be used to indicate a no oil pressure warning light.
The motorcycle already has a warning lamp in the speedo for a low oil level. The low oil level lamp illuminates when the float in the oil sump grounds. I tied into the low oil level lamp and am using a pressure switch which grounds when there is no oil pressure.
The circuit will have to be in series between the lamp and the ground. The lamp draws less than 10ma.
I have searched the internet with no luck. A normal blinker flasher will not work because of the low amperage the lamp will draw.
I appreciate any input to this project.
Thanks MrModify
