Hi everyone, my cars indicator ticking noise has started coming on randomly just on its own, or after I have just used the indicator (it continues faster). My friend thought it might have been something to do with the hazard controls (as this is where the noise comes from). He tested it and said that there was some live feed coming from something in the block, so we replaced the whole block. After replacing the whole unit thing it still did it.
Anyway, he checked the fuses which are all ok, and looked at the indicator relay. He said it felt slightly warm but did not smell burnt or anything. Hes a mechanic but hes not a big fan of auto electronics. He said he could try the indicator relay stuff however he doesnt want to keep spending money on what he thinks it could be.
Its a Leon mk1 (2001) 1.6 S.
Just to add, the indicator lights do not come on when the noise comes on, they are working as normal, (also all the bulbs are all ok).
