i have a 1985 ex mod 110, I've managed to get all the lights working, the only problem i have is, the indicators and hazards work, the dash board light doesnt, the trailer light does flash, which is the best way to fix this problem? I've managed to wire up a normal switch for the hazards running a pair of relay, a local auto elec drew a diagram for me, sadly bolt on bits were a waste of time.
any advice would be great.
 
I've just checked the bulb is ok and continuity across the pcb, i cant see any damaged wiring, but I've cleaned everything up, I've been reading the diagram and am having problems with the wiring for it, is there a trigger wire from the hazard switch or have i wired the trailer light instead of the indicator warning light? good news is the dashboard is easy to unscrew....
 
I've managed to make progress, this is a diagram of what I've done I've got everything working apart from the dashboard light, the trailer just flashes.

first relay
terminal wire colour
87 purple 12v in
86 from hazard switch
85 earth
87a green/yellow
30 green

2nd relay
87 green/red
87b green/red
30 light green
85 earth
86 from hazard switch

if i remove the wire from the relay for the trailer light terminal 87 (2nd relay), i can add the two green and red wires to terminals 87 and 30 the light flashes as it should, all great apart from if i turn the hazards on only the left hand side works!!

if anybody would have any advice or help it would be great, already spent hours with a multi meter.
bolt on bits where not one bit of help, after being transferred i was told to speak to an auto electrician, when they did manage to post a diagram most of the wiring colours are wrong.
thanks for any help or advice in advance
