Rewired my car a couple of days ago after resray and everything working fine. Now go to put the indicators on and no clicking noise or flash at the indicators and the dash lights just stay still. But if I put the hazards on they flash and you here the normal clicking noise. Any ideas please?

it may be the wire connection under the steering coloum sometimes the terminals pull out of the block n dont make contact
I read it on FACEBOOK so it must be true

GT MAc, i had the exact issue. The problems is that your not providing enough load when your using 2 only blinkers, but when you use 4, the load increase and becomes suitable for the relay. Do you have after-market blinkers or LED's?

Go to the local auto shop and buy a 2 pin 12 volt relay and make sure on the pack it says 'for 1-10 globes/lights'. Don't buy the ones that say ' for 4(6) Globes'.

This should solve your problem. Let me know if you have any issues, i spent hours x hours x hours on this issue...simple relay in the end.

yes it could be if you have after market blinkers

If you have stock set up then check the wiring connectors

No after market blinkers, but will try looking at that Mick and of course will check the fuse box wiring Dave as I was mucking around with that yesterday and took it off and back on again and could quite easily have loosened a terminal. As I said they were working fine, car has not been driven at all and then they just stopped.

Yes I did, thanks Dave. It was a loose wire on terminal behind the fuse box. It was the fact that the hazards still worked that confused me but if they are a different line then I understand.
