   Ok guys wondered if you could help me with this one.
   Yes one of the most common faults the indicator.
   Mine had been ticking like mad and the front and side repeater are working but are flashing faster than they should but one of the rear light indicator dosent.
   I've got hold ov another relay but that hasent done it.
   Any suggestions guys?
   Thanks

   Already tried another relay mate.
   Would a blown bulb cause the relay to click like mad if it was a bulb?

   This is actually quite a common problem.......as well as the relay it could be the indicator stalk.

   Problem solved guys.
   Turned out to be the bloody bulb.
   Never checked it first as I wouldn't of expected a blown bulb to cause the relay to go mad but I was wrong.
   Thanks
