so im driving home today and indicate to go into my street, and as i turn the corner and the indicator clicks back, the whole indicator stick thing decided to give up completely. now all i have is a loose stick! not only does the inicators not work now, if i put the lights on they will always stay on high beam...also the tacho wont read properly anymore and the fuel and temp guages arent working. :cry:

So, do you think it is fixable or am i up for a whole new indicator stick setup? which i know would be quite pricy.?

please help. cheers

Indicator stalks on clubbies aren't too bad price wise. Someone here should have one for a reasonable price. The reason evverything is on the fritz is because the indicator stalk is more than likely earthng somewhere. If it is as buusted as you say it is. replace it.

Cheers
Aaron

there is a little metal clip that holds it all together, find it or buy a new clip.

That is a possible solution.
bring the switch over, i've got plenty of broken switches you can look through for bits.
