A transistorized flasher circuit for vehicle signal lamps comprising a free running multivibrator, incorporating a capacitor and a programmable unijunction transistor, for cyclically and intermittently driving an output transistor into a conductive state as the capacitor is alternately charged and discharged. A relay is provided and includes a coil connected in series with the output circuit of the output transistor and a set of normally open contacts which are connected in series with a lamp load and a start switch and which are closed in response to the energization of the coil. A charging circuit including the capacitor and a diode connected in series therewith is connected in parallel with the set of relay contacts for charging the capacitor along a first path when the set of relays contacts open. A discharging circuit is provided for discharging the capacitor along a second path, which does not include the diode, when the relay contacts close.
