#1: Indicators with a mind of their own! Author: JJ0063, Location: NorfolkPosted: Wed Dec 08, 2010 1:49 pm ---- Hi all,
Just a quick question about indicators here..
I started the car up this morning and the right indicator was on.. but the stalk was in the 'neutral' position i'll call it!
Now I flicked it to the left, and left came on, but then put it back to 'neutral' and the right one came on?
Is this just a case of whacking a bit of vaseline on the switch?
if i really carefully and slowly move the stalk about i can make them go off... sometimes for literally 3-4 seconds, or sometimes for a whole journey.
quite annoying when im driving down the road with people flashing their lights cause they think i dont realise my indicator is on! lol
Cheers
Jordan

Cheers!

Author: JJ0063, Location: NorfolkPosted: Fri Dec 10, 2010 2:49 pm ---- read my above post! take the stalk off.. prise the top cover off.. clean the metal contacts... could even put a blob of vaseline in the joints to stop getting a dry joint.. put back together & hope for the best! Took me no more than 15 mins from start to finish including taking the cowling etc off
