Supply feed X, B or + (or 15, 49 euro)
Earth E or - (or 31 euro)
Switch L (or 49a euro)

indicator relay (lucas) marked FL8 (or FL5 on a 3-terminal flasher)
Hazard relay (lucas) marked FL9

Relay relies on correct voltage-in and resistance-out to get the correct
flash rate.  Not enough resistance (bulbs blown or FL9 running the
indicators) will keep the bulb on but will not let it flash.  Dying
battery/no generator will make the indicators flash progressively slower.
Indicator units should show {2 x 21, + 5} printed/engraved on them whilst
hazards might have {4 x 21, + 5} or similar.

Hope this helps
