With all the bad weather something had to give on my AXGT. I'm really stuck here and would rather not get an auto electician to come out and start fault finding. My indicator lights have packed up, no clicking no arrows on the dash but my hazards work fine, checked the fuzes all ok. I guess its a wireing issue but before I star ripping the dash out I was wondering if anyone had something like this before? Maybe a loose wire or clip may have fallen off, I'm used to various other clips falling off from time to time.

Or if its a corrosion issue maybe knows where it's likely to fail? I'm usually ok with thing that go wrong and if not I mostly get by with my haynes manual. Anyway if someone has any ideas feedback and comments would be great, being the time of year this is the last thing I need.


Thanks in advance

Could be a fault with the indicator stalk, does the same relay control both the hazard and indicator function?

Get a wiring diagram as it sounds like the feed to the stalk.

Not the flasher relat as your hazards are working unless there is a seperste flasher for the hazards.

If you have half a brain and a multimeter it should be an easy fix in a old tech car. Also try jumping out things with a wire from the positive on the battery. But only try the jumping if you are confident. If not confident don't try it as all the smoke may come out of your loom.
