View Full Version : No indicators - NOT Hazzard plug

Half way through my journey home, my indicators decided to stop working. Hazard lights still works fine though :conf:
(I haven't done anything to the car for weeks but I did rewire my indicators to the fog lights about a month ago)
Too dark to do anything now, so tomorrow I will check the fuses (?) and the indicator stalk.

Just wondering if anyone had any experience or info that might help ?

Cheers

I would start looking at the wiring you did for the fogs .the flasher unit will have a set resistance to operate( the 4 indicators) ,sounds like it has too much loading(fogs!) hazard lights usually have their own flasher unit so still work

Must of been a reason though for the fuse to go??? Would check the wireing.

I guess and hope that it was because of the increased load being drawn, when I changed from a 21W bulb to a 110W or so.

Yeah that could explain it !!! If it goes again though i would be carefull in thinking about fitting a larger fuse as if you go to big the wire could burn before the fuse goes! I would only go a little bit up in value.
