Post by: capoot on 22 February 2007, 17:48

Hey Guys, I went to put my indicators on and there not working for some reason. the LED on the dash lights up but stays a solid green. All the other control on that stalk work?

Mine did this, I took it out, chucked it on the floor, put it back in again and its worked ever since, lol. They are £18 odd plus VAT from the sealers, probably best place to get things like that from, or a scrappie. seem to remember the number 19 for it..... not sure though, go to a dealer, ask for the part no from EKTA, then say ta very much and go to the scrap yard  :smiley:

just had this same prob, water had found its way onto the fusebox (from the bonnet release cable grommet) and was giving the flasher relay all sorts of probs! blew it with a (dry) airline re-fitted and all worked.

Then I sealed up the grommet with grease!
it's still working!

Hi, one possible cause.
The hazard warning light switch is part of the feed to the flasher unit, this allows the hazard switch to 'take control' of all the indicators.
The indicators will fail to work correctly when the Hazard switch is removed or faulty.
