Default dodgy electrickery

rite me indicators av packed up ,started the other day with a dodgy right hand side indicator,checked them all and found the wing repeater werent workin on the right hand side,changed for a new one,put it all back together it worked fine ,went out forra drive round played up again only when turnin right thou ,got back home tried to get the fault to appear,worked fine .now they have packed up all together .
hazard lights work fine so assume hazard light switch and relay is fine,no fuses blown,just no individual indicators left or right ,not even a flicker .
so am i correct in assuming me indicator switch is buggered?

make a lead up thats long enough , just a bit of 1.5mm with a crimp on aither end, and test each connection, ie one on the sw and one on the indicator to confirm if there is a break in the wirin some where

Sounds like a poor connection - check the wiring to the back of the hazard light switch - its all very odd, like if you unplug the hazard switch the indicatorsa work fine but continue to work with the ignition off, and things like that. Try the relay also, 'cos they are electronic and easily go wrong.
