Help with damn indicators

Post by Jacks406 »

Left hand indicator is fine on all bulbs, flahes correctly.

Right hand indicator flashes rapidly and sometimes just stays on, depending on its mood.

All bulbs working

any help appreciated

ok just read your previous posts and noticed you said its a 2.1 so that tells me you have a D8

i would defo change the indicator stalk . that fixed my fast flashing indicator few weeks ago.

if you do make sure you buy a new one which has front fog light controll (if yours has front fogs that is)

this is the part - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/PEUGEOT-406-S ... 3cc19df8d1
just remember that one doesnt have front fog light control .
search for ones with front fog light on of try your local breakers yard

Before buying anything, give your hazard light switch a few sharp presses - see if that fixes it

I'd be tempted to blame the relay though
