E30 indicators not working

Recommended Posts

All 6bulbs flash when hazard button is pressed.

When I try use the indicator stalk nothing happens, nothing on cluster or bulbs.

High beam works when I pull the stalk towards me, nothing when I push it ( to lock on high beam).

Have power up to the stalk.

Have replaced flasher relay and hazard button.

Any help would be great. Cheers.

Power up stalk - which circuit?

Indicator circuit fuse?

H/B only on flash - do the headlights work off switch at all?

wheel and all surrounds are off, there are brown wires that go to ground.

could the stalk be faulty?

car has no sterio atm, could this have anything to do with it?

if the car has an OBC then yes, but only because you may have bumped something. otherwise shouldn't be an issue. but you havent mentioned that button on the stalk so i assume it hasnt got one

im sure there is power on atleast 2 of the points behind the stalk, but will double check tomorrow.

there are 2 fuses that run the indicators? both seem fine, will double check w test light.

and yes headlights work fine.

park ,

low.

and high ( only when i pull stalk ) not push.

cheers

certainly does point to the stalk then and not an issue elsewhere because of the fact that the highbeam also doesnt work

any other work or maintenence you have done recently you may have knocked something?

2 Fuses for indicators - no - why do you ask?

Can't recall switch wiring offhand but - there needs to be a supply into the indicator switch.

IE Fuse- flasher - hazard switch - indicator switch

H/B flash is a different circuit to H/B - you need to confirm if power is coming out on high - the fault could be one of several things.
