Probably. But on which vehicle? Early fuse boxes had an independent earth for the relay which if faulty can cause the same symptom.

Hi big herb! 1984 van, with early fuse box :-(

will try looking for the earth. Sounds entirely plausible where this marebag is concerned...... :-)

Thanks for the tip. What is the number of the relay please?


cheers

Had this happen on a few earlies and every time it was a fuse that looked fine but when removed had a break in it. Check them all carefully as its easy to miss. Other than that - hazard relay or bad earth but bet its a fuse.
