I've had a problem for the last 2 years with an intermittent indicator fault when damp conditions occur, and it's getting on my nerves
It usually happens 1st thing in the morning when damp, but can happen in in summer when it's very humid/a sudden rain storm.
I get a total loss of indicators left and right, or they'll flash in each direction I set them on a few times, then stop working. Both situations are solved when I put the heater on for a while, and when they are semi working I have to keep returning the stalk to neutral and then re apply in the direction I want, to get more flashes.
So far I've checked the connector blocks/terminal to the comms unit and sprayed with WD40.
Waggled the indicator stalk whilst at fault...no change
Put the hazard lights on when indicators at fault, hazards work fine.
Checked the indicator stalk is still 'tight', it's not at all floppy.
I'm at a loss, does anyone have any experience of this problem?
I suspect damp is getting in, or a possible relay fault as it's a intermittent fault in nature.
I recently sparyed the connector blocks in the PSF with WD40 and the problem with the indicators has become far less frequent...however...that could just be coincidence :S
Any help much appreciated
