Title: silly indicators Post by: surferboy on August 25, 2009, 02:08:48 PM both of the front indicators on Cathys "ugly duckling" FC have stopped working. rears still work, theres no flashing on dash but they still tick.
dont know how original the wiring system is ? it was an FE but has FC grille, different motor, gearbox,brakes etc.etc.. etc Is it a simple problem or an auto sparky job? My wagon is weird.. all indicators work externally but the left doesnt show on the dash, the right does. and when they cancel off all external lights stop flashing but both dash lights flash (like hazard lights) until i nudge the indicator arm a little bit. And when i stick it in reverse (trimatic auto) the front left indicator/sidelight comes on but i dont have reversing lights ?!?!? 8) 8) 8) Title: Re: silly indicators Post by: Ed on August 26, 2009, 08:17:23 AM I would check continuity of each circuit and clean up all the earths.

Did you do the wiring? If you did check the circuitry especially the difference in the column between brake lights flashing and not flashing and how it is hooked up to the reverse lights.
If you didn't do the wiring then I would rip it all out and do it again. Ken |
