Broken Indicator

Post by iandromiskin »

Just noticed that my left front indicator does not work. I have tried changing the bulb to no avail. I can only presume there is a loose wire somewhere, but does anyone have any suggestions on where to look to fix the problem ???

Often the problem lies inside the lampholder - where the little spring rots away and no contact is being made with bulb. Can also be bad earthing/bad connection of course.
