Indicator bulb's are good but not flashing
« on: 13 May 2013, 17:14:01 »
Hi guys, as above, when I put the indicators on (right or left) they stay solid and don't flash.

obviously the bulbs are good as I've checked and all bulbs are on.

can someone post up a fusebox layout as i'm presuming I need to check the fuses for the indicators. I also assume there's a ''flasher'' system and I presume theres a relay/fuse for that too. if you can tell me where this is?

then if all that's good am I looking at a new flasher unit?

Try turning hazard switch on and off about 20 times ;)

If that doesn't work I'd suspect flasher unit
