Nathan017 Member 31 Member For: 3y 2m 19d Posted 10/10/21 04:30 AM Share Posted 10/10/21 04:30 AM I have my drivers indicator randomly stopping and start flashing fast like a bulb is blown - however none are blown and they all work. this only happens on the drivers side, iv done some reading about changing the indicators relay but I cant seem to locate it in any fuse diagrams or any previous threads? can anyone share any info to help so annoying and potentially dangerous.

Nathan017 Member 31 Member For: 3y 2m 19d Posted 12/10/21 08:10 AM Author Share Posted 12/10/21 08:10 AM managed to narrow this down to the rear LED tail lamps fitted , unplugged the side causing the issue , and when car realises its off it still flickers but fast, rather then when its plugged it and it malfunctions all indicators stop completely on that side . noticed a few LEDS out on each of the panels so im thinking of replacing them completely to see if it is the problem. I noticed resistors underneath , x 2 on each side to ramp the volts up, could out LEDs cause drop in voltage therefor tripping the computer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
