My indicators are on, permanently. Not flashing, just on. New flasher unit?
Cheers,

Flasher unita are cheap so testing by substitution won't break the bank. However, it just be down to bad connections. The flasher unit works on load so if it's not getting the required draw the rlay won't click over.

If it has suddenly happened - then yes likely to be flasher unit. Could be the cables at the flasher have somehow shorted together - but probably better chance of Lotto win than that happening!

I'm with the previous posters.The symptons are a faulty flasher unit but try cleaning the contacts first.

Clean the contacts - in the flasher unit ? It is possible to open the can - but the contacts are v delicate. Doesn't seem worth it!
