I broke my Hazard Warning Switch replaced it when I switch it on the indicators work but when i turn it off and switch indicators on using indicator stalk they dont come on any1 know what the problem could be and have a solution cos im clueless

you might have knocked a plug on your indicator stalks. Check all the connections round there.

Does the indicator come on but not flash? If so your new hazard warning switch is broken or not connected properly, replace/fix that and it'll be ok.

the plugs round there can be a bit fernickety so make sure they're all connected right and the wiring going to them isn't loose anywhere.

seem to remember this problem when i changed my dash clocks around

OK i have a new problem. My front drivers side indicator has stopped working. Ive tried everything i know and found that the flasher unit, fuses, bulb, connections behind the bulb, connections in the engine bay just behind the headlight and indicator stalk are all spot on. I'm out of ideas.......

One thing i have found is there seems to be a permanent current running through the offending light but not enough to light the bulb, could this be a sign of anything serious?

Please, i need your help.

Ta very muchly,

could be shorting/bad earth/or relay, just a thought

Have you recently fitted a stereo especially with an ISO connector cos the illuminator on a ISO connector runs from the same cables as your lights if so disconnect cos u wont need it it just causes problems as I found out.

I have a kenwood stereo with an ISO connection but this has been fitted for about a year now with no adverse effects

Looks like im gonna have to check the wiring from stalk to bulb, something i ws hoping i wouldnt have to do lol
