Indicator "busted"

Post by SoulBlade »

Hi

My indicator which also turns on my brights is constantly on brights. I suspects a worn cables touching.
I tried lifting the rubbers to see if I can open the steering whel column and taping it myself but it looks like a little contained box.

Where can I go fix it here in Cape Town?

I drive a 1997 Opel Corsa 1.3.

Thx

hey SB - that is a tipcal Opel fault :lol:

I drive a 1996 Opel Astra 1.6iS & mine does exactly the same. its not worn wires that I can tell you, its the unit inside that connects to the wiring thats busted. (had it on my moms 1997 Opel Kadet 1.6iS - replaced the whole unit)

You can pick that up second hand unit at a scrapyard or pay out of your ears for a new one.
