Title: Front indicator not flashing?
Post by: Tramp on 30 March 2011, 16:45

Front indicator not working. Bulb is fine, fuse is fine, I can’t see any bad corrosion in any of the plugs etc.
Emergency flash lights working on all (including the rear indicators and one indicator)...I think it might be a short but where is the obvious place it would be?
It’s a 1989 F plate Mk2

If the 4 way flashers are all working then work from the stalk forwards.....

Not sure if you understood but the Hazards did work but only the 3 and not the faulty indicator. i have worked from the stalk but can discover nothing but i will go through it again who knows?

Thanks :wink:
