Nearside Indicators not working

Post by redduster »

Replacing the body hinge gaskets so on drivers side remove steering wheel, glovebox, gain access to hinge, replace gasket, replace glovebox, put steering wheel on check indicators AHH.

Offside OK even if green indicator stalk lamp a bit dull, nearside nothing?

Before dismantling the whole shooting match again any quick and dirty ideas what to check? :roll:

I had same issue a while ago, drove me nuts, and ended up replacing switch, flasher unit, light fitting and cleaning earths. if you're lucky you may just have an earth fault.

Are you sure there is 'nothing' ? No light either front or back?

Thanks for the advice and cause was a bullet connector not actually crimped together properly!

Now fixed after tracing all wires, front and back for continuity and , as usual like lost keys you find the m in the last place you look.

Thanks for the advice and assistance gentlemen. :D

The reason you find things in the last place you look is that once you find the missing article you stop looking! :o
