if its the PCB mate you are prob best to get a new set of clocks cause they are a pain and really its bad practice to fix them anyway, assuming it a track that broke. If you have a look at the PCB and its a bit of corrosion or somethig just try cleanig it up. have you put a meter onto the contacts of the bulb holders and tested whether or not power is getting to them when your indicators are flashing etc? | |

Update: Spoken to my MOT garage today n it's defo an MOT failure :( Crap! He mentioned it might be the printed circut (sp?) on the bck of the clocks. Anyone got an idea how i wud fix or repair this damn problem? Or is it a case of a new set of clocks? | |

On the B's i don't think there's no fuse box under the bonnet (unless someone corrects me??) Where my fuse 13 is there are no metal pins inside the plastic covering to hold the fuse into place so i assume it wouldn't need one. But thanx for the reply anyway m8. I have had the clocks out tonight and swapped bulbs about left right and centre and no matter which working bulb i put into the slot for the indicators it doesn't light, i've also checked all the contacts etc. just incase. | |

Just checked again and it's 100% not a fuse. Fuse 13 is a big mo-fo and mine doesn't have anything in there (Corsa b '93) And it's defo not the illuminator dial as the indicator light comes on without the lights been on. Is this an MOT failure? Anyone have a clue wat it could be? Cheers :thumbs: | |

Alrite, I just noticed today that when my indicators were on inc. my hazard lights btw the symbol on the dash wasn't lit. It's the same for my rear fogs aswell, the light just doesn't show on the dials. I had the clocks out today n all the contacts seem fine n the filaments on the bulbs don't appear to be broken either. Has anyone got a clue on what the problem could be and how to fix it? Also is it an MOT failier (sp :boggle: ) as mine is due soon? Cheers ppl |
