Xantia Phase Two - Mysterious Light
Discussion
Fresh from the girly men topic I'm here to confess that I'm baffled by something.
The car is a fetchingly spruce green Xantia berline. 1.9 Turbo D for powahh and economy. To the lower right of the dashboard are a series of switches: rear window over-ride etc.
Upon this panel is a switch blank with a big red light stuck in it. Said light appears to be aftermarket. Initially I assumed it to be related to the alarm or something. Apparently not! It doesn't appear to do anything at all, except...
When swapping rapidly from right to left hand indication, or vice versa, it flashes! Once or twice and not in time with the indicators. It doesn't do it every time - but this is definitely the trigger. I can persuade it to illuminate by flicking the indicator stalk about.
Can anyone offer any suggestions?

I have a similar thing on my 405 TD (green light by the clock).
It is a flasher that lights up to tell you the indicators are working on the trailer when one is attached, it is instead of the 'beeper' you normally hear on cars when a trailer is hooked up.
I have no idea why it flashes when changing from left to right indication quickly, mine does the same, I guess it's just a fault!
