indicators staying on and not flashing

Post by graciesdadpaul »

hi all, i am renovating a 1972 J model and am having issues with the the indicators. The original relay looks knackered and makes a terrible buzzing sound whilst also not working, so i bought an after market replacement. This one doesn't buzz but the indicators do not blink. I found another relay laying aroud tried that and still dont flash

All the wiring looks good, any ideas im a bit stumped?

thanks

A cheap & cheerful chinky economically priced imported one will do the trick. No-one will know as it'll be under the side panel.
Ebay 372625292007 or similar. Don't get the led bulb type btw - and get two in case you break the first one.
Read the description - it even has an adjustable knob - personally I prefer an adjustable screw, but what's in a foreign description eh?
