Indicators not working

Postby Uncle B » Wed Jan 21, 2009 7:26 pm

Finally got around to sticking LEDs into the AC today but managed to blow a fuse. Replaced it and all seemed well, or so I thought.

Hazards etc. work fine and I get the interior indicator lights flashing with hazards on, but its as if the up/downward motion of the light stalk isnt having any effect...

I've checked the footwell/engine bay fuse boxes and they're all grand, any ideas?
I dont have the centre console installed atm but doubt that would matter?

Any of the wires touching each other and shorting out? Happened me when I replaced side indicators before, kept blowing fuses until I copped what it was.

I blew the fuse when I was testing the LEDs (wires touched). I've checked all the fuses and they seem to be fine but I'll go have another look now.

EDIT: They all good unfortunatley
