My flasher was having trouble and flashing too fast on one side. I went to
O'Rileys auto parts, bought a Novita EL12 flasher and swapped the guts into the
Lucas can. Took my time opening the cans, fit perfect, flashes just right
regardless of loads and it's brighter. (Had to tap the screw threads into the
terminals)

This is a recreation of the BT7 wiring diagram in ladder logic format (there's
one for positive ground and one for negative). The only difference is the
reversing of the coil connections to maintain the same direction of current to
the spark plugs. It is not accurate for a BJ8, but is accurate with respect to
the "8-way flasher box relay", so maybe it can help you sort out the problem.

BJ8 with combined side/indicators/brake lights. NOT the late phase II with the
extra lights.
So,...the relay. By this I mean the round silver can with 1 wire from P to the
dash, 1 from B to the 35 amp feed & 1 from L to T8 on the dreaded 8-way flasher
relay box.
Now, the LHS indicators work and the RHS don't. Well, they've worked
occasionally. My question is this:-
If one side works, then the relay works?? There's no way that the relay can
function on one side only? It sends current down one wire only, so, if the LHS
works, then the relay is doing its job????? Right?????
I remain very prepared to be confounded. My logic(?) usually fails when I'm in
front of a wiring diagram. In fact, I would be thrilled just to be able to fix
the problem with a cheap part.
Thanks,
Simon
