Indicators on my '93 Griff 430 are playing up, when the car/engine are cold, no problem, both indicators/hazards working

When hot, intermittedly they refuse service, when it does I get no relays clicking

Is it the relays ? (come to think of it, where are they ?) flasher relay, hazard relay (anyone knows a source ?) or could it be the diodes (source ?) or should I suspect the indicator stalk or hazard switch ?

Would like some advise, before I tear the whole system apart wink

Frank,

The circuitry for the indicator/hazzard is a bit of a nightmare to get your head around, i spent a few hours working it all out when re-wiring my sons Chimaera.

I'd start at the column stalks and check with a multimeter what readings you are getting when it works and again when it doesn't.

The relays are behind the dash and are fairly easy to come by just depends which ones you have :- http://www.racetechdirect.co.uk/tvr-relays-and-sol...

The diodes are buried in the wiring loom and can be a pain to find them all, but can be replaced with 1N400X series available from RS http://benl.rs-online.com/web/c/?searchTerm=1N4007...

I found this diagram which may help you work it out :-
