Re: srobe indicator

Try cleaning up all the contacts, especially the earth contacts, and coat them with vasaline.

Absolutely. I look the girl on the till in the eyes and say "I've got some KY Jelly at home too.........." it always works.

Silicone grease is better than Vasaline (not better than KY) but more expensive and you can't get it at ASDA.

The relay for the indicators and hazards is in the fuse box (by the pull handle for the bonnet). This relay is the boxy thingy at the extreme right.
