I used to have lights that would never turn, no matter what I did. Now I try this method and like I said it has worked for me 99.9% of the time.
Good luck and let me know if it works for you.
You can make an even better signal than the starter, because mine is on top of the engine. In grade school, we made an electromagnet by wrapping an insulated wire around a bent nail, and attaching the wires to a battery. It would pick up a bunch of nails. How about making a small electromagnet under your engine? You could hook it up to a relay and switch just for traffic lights.
