INDICATOR PROBLEMS
« on: 17 January 2006, 19:07 »
My indicators packed in today. A real pain in the ass plus its pretty dangerous. The last week or so there has been a strange ticking noise coming from the dash, its sounds like the indicators were being switched on anf off really quickly so i had a feeling something wasnt right. The hazards work fine tho. My dad seems to think its an electrical box or something lol!! Anyone got ne ideas or had similar probs? At the mo they might work once and then it just goes dead.....Thanks- Jonno

This, the flasher relay is built into the switch and is quite a common failing part.
