My Beetle indicators just stop working, why me?

The indicator light on the speedo just stay's on a solid light when the indicator arm is pushed either left or right with no action on the lights. Its a 63 beetle 12V , the hazards work fine, ive checked the connections under the stearing column. Ive just installed an electric fuel pump and everything was fine on the test drive until they just stoped .
Can anyone shed some light?

check you have good earths. majority of indicator problems are the earths,especially if you have fibreglass guards.

thanks Luftmeister, I checked all the wires inc. earths and it just decided to start working.
Im none the wiser to what happened but it helps if you get pointed in the right direction,
Cheers

What about if your indicators work, but when you pull the hazard switch, it just lights up the light, but doesn't flash? So basically opposite to Muppet
