Hi All,

My indicators randomly stop working, when im at the lights turning left or right and have my indicator on it randomly stops then about 10 mins later they start working again. Anyone got any ideas, its a 91 SWB vitara.

Thanks

1.Bad connections internally in the indicator switches,
Strip em down use some contact cleaner
2. Power loss to indicator relay
Check power to relay, loose wire ect
Try hazards when indicators don't work
If hazards work, u will have power to flasher relay.
Problem will be in indicator switches, repeat steps 1

Not correct on teh hazard power, when it stops working, try the hazards, if it starts to work it the indicator power supply, maybe a loose fuse, if it still doesnt work its the flasher unit, behind the drivers side speaker

I am going with Flasher unit

indicators are over rated.

stick right arm out when turning right, bend at elbow and point hand up when stopping or turning left.

if window is up, wind down-or even better-remove windows (they just get in the way)

watch out for motorbikes lane splitting (helmets hurt)

works for me!

No-one yet has mentioned the hazard signal switch as a possible cause of the problem...

Just another possibility as it has both normally closed and normally open contacts that will stop indicators working if the switch is stuck half-way down.

And when someone honks at you, Stick your arm out the window, bend at the elbow and extend middle finger.
