Grote 44460 Relay Switch for Headlamp Circuits
The Grote 44460 is a 12 V DC relay switch designed as a direct replacement for an original-equipment flasher. It maintains the legally compliant flash rate through electronically controlled timing. Heavy-duty contact construction is intended to provide years of trouble-free operation. The unit installs with a plug-in mount and meets FMVSS SAE CODE Q standards.
Fits Existing Flasher Socket to Enable Turn Signal
This relay plugs into the existing flasher socket, requiring no new wiring harness or bracket fabrication. It frees the builder from retaining the original floor-mounted dimmer switch by enabling conversion to a turn signal switch with a lift-to-dim feature. The single-connector interface keeps the installation straightforward. The black housing matches typical under-dash component colouring.
Suits Restorations and Custom Builds Using 12 V
This part suits restorers or custom builders converting a floor-mounted dimmer to a column-mounted turn signal switch with lift-to-dim on a 12 V DC vehicle. It is not for buyers who need a multi-function relay with additional connectors or programmable timing beyond the fixed flash rate. Vehicles operating on voltages other than 12 V DC cannot use this relay. Buyers seeking a flasher for LED-specific load balancing should look elsewhere.
