Post by DRAGONWAGON »

Hi

Have a look at the printed circuit on the back, probably something wrong with that as there so flimsy!
check there is power going to the contact for the LED, if not its probably the circuit.
if power replace led and see what happens!

Hello,

the indicators are wired from the indicator switch through the hazard light switch - this'll probably be a hazard light switch that needs a bit of cleaning up. BOXY did a good diagram highlighting how it's wired up, and where the isolation between indicator and hazards is here:

it's not your exact problem but it might help to see the circuits, and why I reckon it's just the switch needs a bit of sorting out...

Hope this helps

Ewen
