Morning all,
I was on a trip to the Netherlands and the Ardennes this weekend and got the warning that my left indicator wasn't working. When I checked it, it seemed to be working fine, but the warning would stay on unless I was actually turning left. Got back, had a look and sure enough, the rear left turn signal wasn't working. A slight tap and it works just fine until I turn off the ignition. I've taken the signal out, the bulb seems fine, there are no obvious loose wires, but every time I turn on the ignition, the signal doesn't work. All it takes is the gentlest of taps on the bulb housing and it'll work fine every time until I turn the ignition off and on again.
It's driving me slowly mad and from the look of the parts manual, these units aren't available on their own, otherwise I'd pick one up just to be sure. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, as there's bugger all chance of me replacing the entire rear light assembly just for this
Cheers
Rob
