Hazard lights question
Hazard lights question

Quick question. Does anyone know if hazard lights were originally fitted to UK supplied 67 buses?

Nope - don't think so - only US spec I believe - pretty sure no UK 67's ever had Hazards.
I have an early 67MY (built Oct66) and that definitely doesn't, there were some minor changes as the build year went on, but don't think it included Hazards on UK spec.

I would of sworn that my stock 67 UK bus had hazards, but it was many years ago, so just checked the USA and Euro wiring diagrams for 67 buses, and the USA model has a hazard switch and the Euro version doesn't

The aftermarket Bosch Hazzard units I have are 1968......
Have looked to see if there was an m code...not found one though...

If it was an option available from the factory, then it would be on the wiring diagrams, as they cover everything, ie ambulance fans / buzzers etc all on the same diagram from a panel to an ambulance. So I guess the UK never had hazards.

67 Euro busses never had had hazards fitted as far as I know except Austrian busses.
Mine came from Austria and had a hazard circuit installed.
Look at the wiring diagram for Non USA (on vintagebus.com)

Well mine has, with the original switch and relay, which has now created a problem since I installed Xenon headlight units. This bus was built in December 66

Cheers for the replys. I'll take it as not fitted, which is what I thought originally, just needed futher verification.
