For the second time in a few hours I have had my turn indicators stop blinking.
The correct turn signal on the dash lights up but does not flash. All the globes are OK. If I turn the ignition off and on again everything is fine. Is the car telling me that the blinker can is on its way out? Are there are special dramas in replacing this unit? Thanks

Its not the blinker.. its the relay in the fuse panel. the panel near your right knee under the dash, open that up, and its the relay on the bottom right.. give it a tap and it will start working. big black square.. if you put your fingers on it you can feel it ticking..
had the same problem with mine.. i flogged a relay from the wreckers. |

Yep exactly what Stiddy said! I would take it one step further and take the relay out, give it a bash and then putting it back in.

This problem happened to me. It was the relay.
