Indicator/hazard problem

[kentwagen]

Hi, my RH indicators are permanently stuck on (not flashing but on all the time) and I cant seem to clear it. Ive checked fuses and disconnected/rec-connected the battery but no luck. I'm guessing its a relay stuck somewhere but where will I find this?! I'd be grateful for any help as Ive had to take out the bulbs and use hand signals!

The relay for the flashers and hazards is part of the hazard switch. Quite a common problem.

thanks for that, I took the relay out and the problem was still there even after disconnecting and reconnecting the battery and removing the fuse. In the end I managed to clear it by turning the ignition on and off several times in a short period of time. I wonder if it is to do with the central locking. It actually came about because the mechanism for locking the passenger door doesn't always activate from the key fob (sticky?) so all the other doors were locked except that one. My girlfriend opened the door and the hazards started flashing as it obviously thought it was being broken into as it thought it was fully locked (?). i then unlocked the car with the key from the drivers side and the lights stopped flashing except the indicators on the off-side which stayed on. Anyway the problem seems to have gone for the time being so I'd suggest trying a ignition on/off sequence should anyone else experience a similar problem as bizarrely it seemed to do the trick somehow. I'll probably investigate the sticky mechanism and either try to free it up or replace it. I think it may have become sticky through lack of use as the previous owner had a fault with the remote keyfob and never replaced it so they only locked and unlocked the car regularly from the driver's door with the key but thats just a guess really. Anyway please post below if you experience the same problem. :confused:
