Annoying indicator relay

[Seal_LCR]

Hi guys

I have an annoying problem which usually I would turn the radio up on but its uninstalled atm

The indicator relay (hazard switch) ticks randomly on its own, indicators don't go off while it does this. I have replaced the hazard switch and dash has been out to check the wiring. It's so intermittent it's hard to find why it does it other than my car is half French after a Spanish señorita had a fling with pascal on a trip to france.

Thanks in advance

It's the indicator stalk.

I had the same problem on my Toledo. Cheaper to start with to buy an air spray and blow the indicator stalk under the rubber bit or use a contact cleaner. Did the trick to me and had no issues since

This happened to me too and it was really annoying. I ended up getting some electrical contact cleaner spray from halfords, after a recommendation on here, and it hasnt flickered for over two years now. Spray it at the base of the stalk and then work the indicator stalk in all directions thoroughly then give it a bit more spray for good luck and fingers crossed it works. If not then oh well you only spent a few quid.
