Funny problem with indicators

[Rick_ford55 0]

Hi everyone, I have just bought a corrado VR6 on a L plate and am almost in seventh heaven with the noise of the engine! However i seem to have a problem with my indicators so much as they seem to have a life of their own. When they work everything is allright but sometimes they just wont go on. If i give the dashboard a little whack above the speedo's etc they then start working again but sometimes go off again. It seems to get worse if it's been raining. As i live in sunny scotland this might pose a problem as it is already sending me a bit mental. has anyone else experienced a problem like this and if so how did you fix it?

I had the same problem, I changed fuse no.17 and it all went back to normal.

welcome to the forum :D

Fuse, relay... ah they're both behind the same panel. Close enough :D

try remove the cowling around the steering column and stalks and check that the large multiplugs on the left side of the steering wheel are fully inserted and not loose. I had a similar problem with my 16Valver and was just the multiplug that had worked loose.

Also make sure that the rear light clusters are cabled correctly - no bent pins. I was doing my nut in for about a week with indicators that sometimes worked .. until I found that they worked fine as long as I didn't have my foot on the brakes ...!
