There's a circuit board attached to the hazard / fogs switches with relays on it.
 
just removed that full unit, but it doesnt look like it comes apart
have slightly opened it but seems connected in a way that its
not meant to come apart
was hoping to find flasher cans/ relays
 
Just opened that unit up now, I can see transistors etc but there all
hard soldered,
was hoping to locate flasher changeable type relay

any other ideas would be gratefully apppreciated
 
I've repaired one so you can definitely take it apart can't remember if its clipped or ultrasonic welded. Your problem is just as likely to be switch/earth/wiring related though so eliminate those first.

I've attached the schematic and legend.

Wiring colour codes are:
A - light blue
B - white
C - orange
G - yellow
H - grey
L - blue
M - brown
N - black
R - red
S - pink
V - green
Z - violet

Eg wires from stalk are violet/black violet/white on pins 4 and 5 of that unit. With indicator on those should be grounded it will be very easy to check with a multimeter if the switch is operating correctly by measuring the resistance on those when the respective indicator is on.

Hi, :)
try this= remove battery power ,

unplug the radio, restore battery power - and see if fault persists;)

it's NOT uncommon for Canbus electrics to get "confused" by foreign ICE kit

I think the problem lies in the unit i was told to
remove earlier been messing a bit while appart and
still connected it works when its tapped etc may have
a dry joint

Unplug, clean the contacts with a good contact cleaner and replug.
 
Ive done that, but while fiddleing (as i'm no auto electrian) it started to
flash left indicator on further inspection there's two relays at one side of plug
that obviously are the right ones as you can feel them working, and two other
relays other side that support left indicator, as i moved one of these away from
the other slightly it started to flash wedged them slightly apart and there working all the time now i think there must be a break or dry joint underneath
the circuit board.
I will look into carrying out a proper repair later on,
I thank you all very much for your help and an extra big thanks
to ecunotemu for all your assistance.
THANKS GUYS
ALL THE BEST TEZ :worship::worship::worship::worship::worship:
