Hazard Light Indicator (question for Bill)

Does anyone know what light socket is supposed to be used with this hazard light indicator?



I got a dash panel a while back that has what appears to be a hazard light switch that would be mounted under the dash mounted in it. But it had no bulb and socket for the indicator.





Thanks

Looks like you have an M-1 thumb, gotta get your thumb oughtta that Garand's chamber PDQ, otherwise...

4 way light mounted on instrument cluster, it's already in place. Switch fits into plugged hole left of choke cable. Don't throw that plug away, it's hard to find.

Bill: 1961 would have had orange plates with black letters originally. When black plates were intro'd in 1963, orange plates had to be turned in.

Ill be sure to not throw away the plug then! The gauge cluster that came with the panel has a ID number starting with C5 so I'm assuming 65, also the wire colors match the wiring diagram I have for a 65.

^ 63 refers to CA black plates.

The early black plates have 63, but the later plates do not. 1963's didn't require a stick on year tag, 1964 and later did.

Had the same black plates from 1965 thru 2009 on my 65 F100.

1965 date means the part was cast in 1965, but...

The same round speedo painted (Standard Cab) and chrome (Custom Cab) steel instrument cluster bezels were used from 1961 thru 1966 (with one exception). On 1963/69 N/NT/T500/1000, 1967/69 F800/1000.

1965/66 F100/250 2WD, 1966 F100 4WD have a chrome plastic sweep (rectangular) speedo instrument cluster bezel.

Does the 4 way lens/bezel mounted in the cluster still have the bulb socket/wiring attached?

4 ways were optional (or usually) a dealer installed accessory kit for these trucks. 1961/66: There were at least FIVE different types of kits.

1966 had two: One type has the 4 way toggle switch mounted to a bracket inside the glove box (!), one needs ape arms to reach it. The light mounts next to the choke cable.

T'other type has the switch where the choke cable mounts, the lens/bezel is next to the switch. With this setup, the choke cable mounts under the dash to a bracket.

Thankfully, the parts catalog shows how all these kits were mounted, otherwise it would be hair pulling time trying to figure it all out.

Nope didnt come with a socket thats why im looking for one. The only things stamped on the switch are the letters RBM.





The black bracket also holds the flasher relay and the bezel has nothing stamped on it other than "Emergency Flasher FoMoCo1" on the face

C3TZ-10A934-A .. The whole enchilada, bulb, bezel/lens, coil spring and socket w/pigtailed wiring. The only way these parts (bulb excepted) were available.

Spring fits backside of cluster, butts up to socket. Bezel has two notches, passes thru hole in cluster, twists onto two pins of socket. Description based on parts catalog pic, otherwise I wouldn't have a clue.

How many would'ja like?

WESLEY OBSOLETE PARTS in Liberty KY has 3 = 606-787-5293.

DON SANDERSON FORD in Glendale AZ has 13 = 623-842-8643.

GREEN SALES CO. in Cincinnati OH has 13 = 800-543-4959.

Instrument bezel mounted hazzard switch and light

Do all '66 F-100's have the switch and hazzard light mounted in the instrument bezel. It looks Ghetto and looks like Dilbert(WW2 Dilbert not the modern cartoon Dilbert)installed it. I see that it is that way on alot of other pickups so it was Factory or installed at the dealer. My question is are Bezels available without the two holes in the bezel? My 67 F100(RIP) had the switch mounted in the glove box and my '66 A Code Mustang Convertible also has it in the glove box, same switch as my '67 F100 SWB in my 4x4. I Don't want hazzards in my bezel. The switch has the bracket that says emergency flashers that I want to mount under the dash. As for the red light it isn't even needed because you can see when your emergencies are on anyway.
HELP are there ant uncut bezels out there?
