Title: Indicator Failure
Post by: Neil (Cardiff) on 22 November 2009, 16:32:12

Just took the car shopping to Asda and the indicators have packed up! Not a normal fault, they're totally dead, nothing at all. The hazards still work fine. I've tried taking the flasher unit out under the steering wheel and that stopped the hazards. Is there another one for the indicators or do they both use the same? Everything else on the stalk works (cruise control, main beam etc). Any ideas? I aint good with electrics! :y

Turn the hazards on and off 30 times.

There's a contact in the back of the hazard switch that sticks sometimes. Turn the hazards on and off 30 or so times then try the indicators ;)

May be a sign that switch is tired. If it does it again, may be worth a new switch :)
