Hi,
After three months in garage finally got my van back. Now find my indicators dont work.
When turn ignition on, the green dash light for the indicator is on all the time. when move indicator arm nothing happens. when flick the hazzard ligh switch get a click from relay but no indicators on. The repair to the van meant new front panels, respray, and indicator.
havent a clue where to start looking.....electrics has always been a nightmare for me.
any suggestions, gratefully appreciated.....cheers.

Re: indicator light on all time...indicators not working
I fitted an new indicator realy, and now the LED glows dimly, but the indicators are fine. Didn't do it with the old relay.
New relay was from Just Kampers... that probably explains it
