Super Fast Indicator Light

[IzZzy]

Hi there,

My left indicator has taken some steroids and now flashes 2 times a second whilst my right flashes normally. Does anyone know how I would go about fixing this irritating problem?

Many thanks

One of the indicators on the same side are not working?
This happened on my old car.
One was dead, caused the others to flick at higher speed.

Ah! I will check tonight. I hope that is the problem and not an auto electrical thing...Thank you!

I find it difficult to comprehend that someone does not know this.

RTFM. Heaven forbid the ABS light should come on...

LOL noooooo you shouldnt worry about not being able to stop at 120km/h.... Nope not dangerous at all.

Dude! ever heard of brake fluid? On a serious note your brake fluid is prob low or you have a leak. Or your abs fuse has gone for some or the other reason.

Why would I want to stop at 120 km/h ? And there are no leaks whatsoever.
I dont trust these funny lights... there are too many of them on the dashboard !
there is another one, also flashes sometimes - it says service. WTF ? Is it asking for some attention ? I mean, I check the oil and water every now and again, what else it wants ?

what else it wants ?

Tender loving care!

This reminds me of a gentleman who brought his V8 Touareg in to VW because "da pefomance is slaggish"
When asked how many KM's the vehicle had, he replied "sixty-eight thouw"
When asked when and where the vehicle was last serviced, he replied "hammmm..neva?"
When asked whether he noticed the 'Service/Inspection' notification on the dashboard every time he switched on the ignition, together with the chime notifying him that the vehicle was due for a service, he replied "ho hokê, I saw that one. But the sound was irritating, so I find da wire and I caat it."

Car? Person? Cow? Pile of bricks? dead body? Stupid metro cop in the middle of the highway trying to pull you over?

We do live in SA dont we?

For objects in the middle of highway - thats why you put bull bars, and then engage reverse, and do it again x3 times, or as many as you like.

As for everything else above , ok it was a joke
After all its monday

My ex-boss had a SL500, and the red light for the service indicator irritated him, and he wasn't interested in using Merc for a service (out of service plan), he tried to cover it with some black tar like putty - looks shocking.

Certain people should have their cars taken away from them and be forced to use public transport!!

I agree - he actually cracked the plastic cover behind the gunk.


Although, I have to admit, I also broke his SL500 - parked on a very steep incline, and they have that pedal handbrake thing, I pushed it in as far as it would go - then when I came back I pulled the handheld plastic release thing straight off - he now has a green and red rope as a handbrake release

First time for everything - learning as I experience problems.

Should be globe, so change that first...

..next would be to ensure all the connections are clean

...last option imo would be to take it to an electrician
