#1: Indicator Stalk clip weak (hard to explain) Author: JordHaze, Location: WarwickshirePosted: Thu Jul 10, 2014 3:47 am ---- Hi guys,
So I've had my 206 since October and recently (May-ish) the indicator stalk started playing up.
When I turn out of my estate onto the main road (I usually turn right) the indicator will turn off automatically, as it should, but it immediately drops down to a left indicate. Is there a clip or something that I can easily fix myself?
I went to my local dealership yesterday, who told me that it would cost £313 (-20% trade discount) to replace the whole indicator head unit part.
I don't have £280 odd to spare right now.
Any advice?
Cheers guys,
Jord

There is a guy on eBay who refurbishes comms units, his prices are decent and I know people who have used him and have had no problems a year later. Can't find the link right now but a Google search will probably bring it up.

My indicator stalk had a mind of it's own - it kept signalling left all by itself. Anyway - I found a simple to follow guide online on how to refurbish the stalk yourself. Followed the guide as stated and now I have a fully refurbished stalk that feels like a brand new part and is in full working order again. Took about 30 mins in all to do, and cost me no money at all.

I take it you followed that guide for the X reg, because it will be no good for your wives 2002 model and no good for the OP with either his 2002 or 2007 model.

Only slightly
