indicator issue help!

[tickover]

Hi all
On holiday in wet Dorset and the nearside rear indicator has stopped working... front works fine (flashing fast) offside indicators working fine.
Hazard lights - 3 indicators work fine rear nearside still not working.
I'm guessing it's prob an earth issue but have Checked fuses, replaced relay, cleaned contacts on the light cluster but don't appear to be getting 12v at rear nearside indicator.

All other lights an said cluster appear to be working fine.. anyone any ideas?

update -Just moved the van, as t's dark I just noticed that the indicator bulb on the dash was dimly lit, when I turned on the lights it went out.. gotta be earth issue? Just odd only one bulb not working....

The rapid flashing is a symptom of a lamp having blown - but since you have no 12v at the indicator this will produce the same effect as it is still effectively an 'open' circuit like you'd get if the lamp had blown. I doubt it's an earth issue as the indicators share the the rear light earths.

You're just going to have to establish where the break in the feed to the lamp is. Have you got a Haynes Manual? Wiring diagram on page 12.35.

Thanks 1664, yeah bulb was the 1st thing I changed, checked old bulb and it's ok as well.

Had some funny issues tonight on way back to tent side lights worked, headlights didn't work nor did either side indicators... when we git back had a look and the headlights flashed instead of indicators lol, one of the earth leads connectors on the earth crown was loose.. but still no nearside rear indicator

Indicator issue solved, the black and white wire had come out of the connector block so all working ok!!!!!
