Hazards lights only half working!!! Pls read :)

[Delboy1]

All,
Help!!! MOT is in 8 days... Found out today that when my hazards light are on, only the right-side flashes.. This is confusing as when I use the left indicator all lights work.
Please help!

Not sure if this is related but my heater fans isn't currently working and intermittently the left indicator light on the dash doesn't light up but outside lights do...


Many Thanks

Andy

Try wiggling the main big plug behind your dash. Cover is easy to remove, just 2 x screws either side at the bottom.
It might not be this, but when my Tuscan's electrics become female on me, this normally cures all

MarkAS,
Do you mean remove the cover with the RPM warning lights attached ? (Just want to double check)

Cheers

Yep, thats the one.

MarkAS/ Anyone!!,
Check the big black cable connector at the back of the dash and that is firmly on.. (I did reseat just in case). what i have notice is that sometime when I put the hazard lights on both indicator lights on the dash stay on and there is a buzzing noise from the light relay!!! Would this mean that my relay is faulty ???

I'm not a TVR expert. But yeah, that sounds like a fked relay.

Quick easy and cheap fix. (hopefully.)

Take the faulty relay into a motor factors and they should be able to match up, if you prefer genuine take it into <whichever> dealership and they *might* be able to cross reference the numbers into something suitable.

Goods news!!! Tuscan has gone into self repair mode and hazard lights are now working...

What did you do, cook it dinner and buy it flowers
Sounds a bit like mine at times, don't you just love them!
