disco indicators

Ok, Hi all, we have a hyperactive right indicator, flashes ten to the dozen, the left one is fine, Ian says it could just be the relay but none of them are loose?? any ideas??

[Martinaston]

one of your bulbs has blown, put the hazards on and have a walk around the car. It should be pretty obvious where the problem is

[bultjeboo]

thank you very much!!!


now why didn't we think of that?? two blondes + one car =

ill guess rear indicator

[Martinaston]

My moneys on the spring contact on the front one

[bultjeboo]

its not the bulbs ill try the spring. if that doesnt fix it driving up the m1 m6 and m56 to manchester should be fun!
thanx for the feed back.

MY FRONT OFF SIDE INDICATOR isnt working, but the builb is fine.

are you guys suggesting that its the connection between the unit and the builb?

i have looked at it and i think i may have to take the bumper off to access the rear of the indicator...

being in a cab you hear so many ''indicate you twat'' hollas from other drivers...i better fix it soon, else i'll get out and smack someone soon!!!

mine done this it was a doggy wire connection going to the lamp housing on the front

my right indicator does this from time to time.

cheap fix: do a doughnut. that usually jerks everything back in place. usually good for a couple weeks or better!

I found speed bumps helped but doughnuts eem like a better idea

[tregzybmw]

i took the indicator apart, after taking the bumper off...

i got a flat head screw driver and 'pulled' the connector out a little, and now it works like a dream!

love the doughnut theory, will give it a go later...even though its fixed
