Indicators Stopped Working....

Recommended Posts

felix2566

Basically as the title, indicators dont work, or very occasionally when they do the relay clicks and crackles a lot. The hazards work fine. Sometimes the indicators will work after using the hazards, but only for a few clicks.

 

I have tried changing the indicator stalk and the relay but it hasn't changed the problem.

 

Was thinking maybe an earthing problem, but why do the hazards work fine?

 

Any help would be much appreciated!

 

Cheers!

Have you tried swapping out the hazard light button itself? The indicator wiring runs though it from memory, and it's been the cause of non-functioning indicators (but hazards OK) for me before...

Yeah, i have that too, i need to sort it really but when i press the hazard button upwards (not in), they work fine! So ive got a small piece of paper wedged in to keep the hazard button up so all works! Bodge and a half! haha! I need to sort it but haven't got around to it yet!

check fuse 4, this will control your indicators.

 

fuse 5 is for your hazards

 

Do you get the indicator relay click when active?

 

And, check that someone hasn't spurred off the main lighting circuit...as some tool had with mine blowing fuses left right and centre!

I had the exact same thing aswell, and it turned out to be the hazard button itself.

Yep, hazard switch for me too. Try a clean out with some contact cleaner/wd40.

This happened to me last week.. I removed the the hazard switch and kept in plugged in. Then gently pushed the switch to one side until the hazards lit. Then to the other until it lit. After 5 goes it carried on working...
