Hazard lights
I have blinker lights, or directional signal lights, whichever you prefer on Apatchy. I just noticed the hazard lights are not as bright as the signal lights. I guess this is just how the wires are hooked up. What say you. At my age, I ain't gonna go swapping wires around. LOL Peace.

Re: Hazard lights
Lawson, at your age, you ARE the hazard!
Seriously, hazard lights would be all four corners, while signal lights would be one side or the tother. You're pulling twice the amps with the hazards, so you are restricted by the size of the wires. Increase the AWG gauge to one that can handle the load.

Re: Hazard lights
Is there any way that your hazard light circuit is going to the tail lights instead of the brake/signal? Tail light filaments are not as bright. That guess is a real stretch, just thinkin' outside the box here. Wiring can be a mystery.

You are probably correct about the size of the wiring. At my age, I'm not going to try and replace it. Just passed my first COVID19 test. Happy.
