hotwire 352 Report post Posted September 20, 2008 Sounds like a bad earth or earth loop to me. Check the relays for the indicators and headlights. Contradiction here - bad earth/ relays - two different circuits Indicators dont use a relay Probably dip switch fault - been there - done that! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unsure on BMW's as am new to them. Indicators do use a relay, a flasher relay. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hotwire 352 Report post Posted September 24, 2008 oops, my bad. Unsure on BMW's as am new to them. Indicators do use a relay, a flasher relay. Commonly known as flasher unit (& as I refer it to) rather than relay. That unit wont be affected by headlight operation to cause the stated problem Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
