OilIT Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 HI, Just preparing the 90 for MOT, and all of a sudden the indicators have stopped working. no flashing lights or clicking or dash flash either. The hazards work fine, and the fuse is ok. My initial thoughts are the flasher unit, but just wondered if anybody else has experienced this and what other possible places to look might be? Appreciate any help / thoughts offered ! OilIT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Appreciate any help / thoughts offered ! OilIT I've had a similar problem, turned out to be the hazards switch. There are some change over contacts in the back of the switch to let the indicators have control when the hazards are off, sometimes they don't make again. Mine used to work when I applied [extreme] pressure to the hazards off position B) . If you have swiss watchmaker blood in your genepool you may be able to dissassemble the switch and bend/mangel the contacts - (warning compressed springs inside otherwise it could be expensive ttfn Matthew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonb Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 Its either the hazard switch or the stalk, its not the flasher unit as its still needed for the hazards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
