Number 5 fuse has been blowing every now and again, so no indicators. went again last night but when changing fuse Now only the left indicators work, when turning the right on there is only the usual clicking sound and the hazard flashes too, but no lights flashing,. The relay gets really hot when indicators are on.
Any Ideas please???
Thanks

Just started doing it again, now got no hazards fuse blows every time. Could it be the hazard switch? Or bare wire somewhere? Only left indicators working now.

Sounds like something is earthing on the RH wiring side. Worth pulling the hazard switch out and checking , as both indicator sides are wired to there.

Got the hazards to work for a short while but the relay got that hot it Started to melt, also back of hazard switch was hot too. Still only left indicators working, the right clicks but only the wing light and front flickers slightly and hazard light simble flashes. Doing my head in now really need to get it sorted as its my daily drive to work, can't find any bare wires yet but will keep looking.

Now every time I turn hazards on it blows number 2 fuse

Checked all indicator earths, seemed ok except the rear right hand, when I pulled it out there was only one wire leading into it, think one of them was loose and snapped off, but could not find the other end will look tomorrow in the daylight. Anyway put new fuse in number 2 and hazards work now without blowing it, also indicators working ok except the rear right and no getting hot or melting. Could this wire be the problem ?? Gonna put new light unit back in tomorrow if I can find the other end of missing wire.
