when i put right indicator on, it flashes really fast like a bulb has gone, but both front and back work ok, just faster than normal, and there is a buzzing sound from the rear one in time with it flashing !?!?! any help apreciated. also, the dash led for the flashers is always lit when ignition is on ( but only dimly) thanx

iirc this is caused by either a bad earth ( maybe behind fusebox? on the earth crown) OR by a duff or corroded flasher relay,
are you sure the buzzing is coming from the rear bulb?
if it is, has the van got a towbar, with one of those awful repeater buzzers fitted? so you supposidly know when the trailer lights are working?
Bad earth!

no,doesnt have a towbar but thats exactly what the sound is like. will try n check earthing points not got too much of an idea but got a test meter to attack it with so can only try. thanx for ur help. think ill check the bulb first tho, might b corroded like u say so thats a good starting point ( but not just now,its snowing here! can u believe this weather? meant 2 b summer soonish )
