Any tips on what might have caused the blinkers to stop working?? I have replaced the flasher cam but still nothing. They were working fine the other night but the car stopped and wouldn't start again, have had a few issues getting it going some days and now no blinkers?? aargh. I just bought grumbles and he is already playing up

Thanks

Been playing under the dash recently have we??? :-)

Just run through all the terminals that corespond to the flasher circuit,,, follow the wires back from the switch if you don`t know the diagram & see if there are any plugs been pulled / bumped out of their sockets

& yeah check fuses & fuse block & clean it with a small wire brush while you`re there anyways

Mine stopped working the other day. I have a roundie and the wire loom from the stalk runs into a connector pod (not sure what its called officially)where there are five wires after the steering column. One wire was loose and that fixed it. Might be worth a look.

Comming down the steering column thier are wire for he blinkers and nornaly a socket connect and these may have poped out. Did you also replace with a 4 pin blinker relay

Get a sheet of 120 wet and dry and clean up all wire connectins you can find in the engine bay including the earth strap from the clutch cofer to innside gaurd.

Boot ...Neg connect to the boot floor
have a rag and degreaser and clean as much as you can see

:wink:
