my indicator, some times i put it on and its fine. other times i put it on and it ticks a couple time or never. anyway when it stops ticking i can WHACK the steering wheel and it turns on perm. or for a second. if i play with the hazard lights it rarely turns back on. continual pressure on the steering wheel generaly keeps it on.
its a 72 squareback - with problems
thanks in advance !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It will be a wire in the quick disconnect plugs under the steering coloum they usually pull out of the plastic plug that they clip into.
I read it on FACEBOOK so it must be true

May be the indicator switch itself that is faulty (how old is it )and is occassionally losing contact on the switch
