blinkers no go... 98 tdi

[incisor]

Hi

blinkers suddenly stopped working, nothing works, no noise no flash both sides front and back :p

hazard lights work as they should

is this going to be the switch assembly on the steering column or is there more than one flasher unit ?

TIA

Sounds like the switch, is it getting power to direct to the appropriate side, probably via a relay.

The old methods didn't seem to suffer such failures. [bigwhistle]

RRCs have a separate can for the hazards.

Check the hazard switch. I believe that can cause the issue.

I solved the issues I once had with help from this webpage (https://forums.lr4x4.com/topic/25376-hazard-switch-indicators-fault-diagnosis/)

My issue turned out to be one of the original plastic bodied indicators fitted to the ARB bullbar. A rust stain was allowing current to track to earth across the plastic. New LED indicators fixed it.

There are two pins on the back of the hazard switch which can be bridged for a temporary bodge. I think it's mentioned in that webpage.

According to the electrical diagram, just after the fuse(for both) there is a connection point where both LightGreen/Brown wires veer off into their respective destinations for the indicator switch and the hazard switch.

Check the indicator switch at the LG/B wire for power, if no, then check the hazard switch (same colour wire ... which should still have power).
Then the tricky part is to figure out where along those wires is the disconnection

On mine the hazard switch wasn't returning (?) properly. A quick press usually sorted it. For a while.

Hope to get more to look at it over the next few days…

Every possibility mine is non stock from a PO. They're both different but the wire colour codes are stock, from memory.
