Do I have cornering lamps?

sklbndt · February 11th, 2009, 07:22 PM

What are the physical identifiers that would indicate that a pair of turn signal assemblies from a 69 Toro have cornering lamps or not?

Thanks

That would make sense wouldn't it...sorry about that....

There will be three sets of wires and plugs. One for parklight/turn signal in pod's front pocket, then one for side marker light and one for cornering lamp in the pod's side pocket.

All of them have a boss cast into them for cornering lamps, but it's only knocked out if car had cornering lamps.

These will work on both 68 and 69. 68 lenses had a black outline stripe, 69 are all argent silver.

Ok.....now I'm confused since I've gotten two different answers.

Anyhow, I took the lense off and I have one amber bulb in the front pocket. In the side pocket I have a small amber bulb and a large clear bulb. Can anyone tell me whether or not these are cornering lights. I am thinking now that they are. Can someone verify this based on the info I have provided? Thanks in advance.

Sounds like a cornering light setup to me!

Yah, you could have just taken the lens off to start with, but I figured since they were already out of the car it would be as simple to look at the wiring, and you wouldn't risk having the lens gasket fall out in a dozen pieces!

Park/turn bulb is an 1157A, the side marker is a 97A, and the cornering lamp bulb is the elusive 1195- a single contact 50 CP bulb. Though it would not surprise me if they've been replaced with easier to find 1156's- common backup light bulbs, 32 CP.
