opel astra estate isue

[martin28]

Hi i have a 1998 opel astra estate 160i 8v the indicators are not working aswell as the hazards
I have replased all 18 relays and 23 fuses on the car a new unit next to the steering still the problem remains the same, the car has being 2weeks at a autoleck. Still the problem remains what can the cause be? And is there a main indicator unit somewere on the car and were? Plz help im out of ideas were to look!!!!!

P.s the light on the dash comes on, remains on and nothing els happens. Wen the hazards are used nothing happens besides the relay making a click sound. Second line relays 3rd relay on the fusebox belowe the steering.

Do you have an immobiliser system that might be linked into the hazard lights?
Or a tow hitch that might be faulty?

 

[martin28]

The imobeliser was faulty and removed
Towhing i haved check
I replaced the 3 point indicator unit on the fuse box no luck yet

 

[LazyLion]

What are you replacing them with? New units? Where did you get them from?

 

[martin28]

Tow bar is 100% only the indicators not working same as on the car, no damaged wires nothing i can see. Its a mistery. What i also notice rpm and speedgauge lights are off yet the rest works and i already check the bulbs they are working perfect. Only thing that makes sens they must also be linked some how.

All parts are straight from westvaal delta. Bran new

Is this at autoleck in primrose?

Think i do remember seeing a blue astra estate on the lift there,

They got my picanto for more than a month!!!!
Getting another picanto next week to see what they can swap around that might be the issue,

Op ever dealt with these guys before?
Or like me, just hoping and praying?

 

[martin28]

Primrose correct at this point is praying. The car must go to delta know they wil check via computer were the fault is. Thums up# and all hope they get the isue. Moterist in SA doent understand hand signals. They only know the middel finger and how to point it at me

Flasher unit replaced yet?

 

[Jet-Fighter7700]

your car is at autolek then?

I dont think sending it to delta will help as they will just send it to the same place;

my picanto been sitting at their shop for over a month now with no clear answers as to why it wont start........
and this was the one that kia sent me to;

I really want to find one good auto mechanic who dosent waste my time;

Flasher unit, relays,fuses, unit next to the steering i am out of ideas what to change the went to delta they are asking me 2800 just to check were the fault is. Im not willing to pay that for old car. Already spend over 4k till know on all the parts. Still the problem remains. I just parked the car for know at home

I hear you martin, these people can't fix anything they've had my picanto for more than a month and can't come to any ideas themselves.....

Do you think Willie at autolek will mind if i tow my car home? And think what to do?

Martin, try Breno electrical in Kensington/Bez valley, they might help you out as its maybe something simple.
