Indicators not working?

[shiggz]

Hey guys,

So I was just replacing my heater matrix, and was putting the dash back and installing everything back in.
I've connected most of it back up apart from the centre console and steering wheel etc.

Before I install the entire dash I decided to check the headlights/wipers/indicators. While I was checking that, I noticed that the indicators didn't work, however the headlights and wipers work, but nothing happens when I turn the indicator stalk, the front/side/back don't light up, and it doesn't show up on the instrument cluster either. (All 3 connections behind the indicator/light/wiper hub are secure)

I checked fuse 4 under the drivers side dash and fuse 7 under the bonnet, and both look okay. Anyone have any idea why the indicators don't work? Have I missed out on connecting any other wires anywhere?


(There is 1 big and small female white plug/connection near the blower (left bottom of the dash), but I don't think it ever connected to anything; theres nothing for it to connect to, but I doubt it'd be related to the indicators anyway)

Is the hazard switch plugged in?

Just tried that, and yeah it worked!

Didn't realise that would need to be plugged in for the indicator to work... #nooblyf

Easy mistake to make, you wouldn't usually expect it to be needed!

I have the same issue where indicators stopped working all of a sudden this morning. I have checked the fuse under the steering wheel and in the front fuse box. Replaced fuse 4 and 7, but the indicators don't work(hazard lights work fine). I coudn't locate the hazard switch mentioned above. Can anyone please post a photo of the hazard switch so that I can try re-plugging it? Thanks.

How do you know the hazard lights work fine when you don’t know where the hazard light switch is? Wtf

If you are referring to the below image as the hazard switch, my bad as i thought the hazard switch is another component beneath the steering wheel section.


The fuses look good but still no indicators and hazard is working fine.
