as its gonna rain later, and as i stopped the roof leaking (i think) i thought sod it, i'll go to work in the cab.

 

when indicating right while braking, the indicator flashes real slow.

 

when indicating right but not btraking, its normal, as is when i indicate left always.

 

is this due to a bad earth? if so, where are the earthing points to check?

 

we were driving te cab all weekend but didnt notice any problems. i drove 150 miles yesterday with a yrailer on the back, and nothing like it was apparent...

 

cheers in advance.

common problem mate jus take out the lighting board and clean all contacts its usual corasion on the board itself jus give it all a real good scrub but while youve got it out you might as well do your best to clean the connecting block to eliminate any further problems i use a wd40 and a toothbrush does the trick but i must remember looking at my teeth this morning witch toothbrush is witch lol

Hope that solves it
