Mine started doing this now and again..

I cleaned up the bulb holders and made the connections excellent and refitted..

It now does it a lot more and when indicating looks ridiculous.. I guess its the wiring connections themselves

I had this, look at the earth connector (female in light cluster) and twist it slightly with pliers.
I assure you it worked for me.

I am so going to do this ASAP.. looks awful when indicating and the lights are on.. reminds me of an old car with disco lights

I cleaned the plugs out with some blue roll and a small electrical screwdriver so come to think of it.. perhaps I bent the connection a bit.. ?!

Did it sort it?

Mine does this from time to time when its wet/ damp weather , so must be causing some shorting problem . The connectors are like new , no corrosion . I took off the light clusters , dried any moisture out off the connection block with a hair drier then liberally coated the connectors with WD40 , problem solved .

Not been near the car.. its 2c and raining outside so will be fighting loosing battle trying to make a good connection.. god I need a garage

I have suffered this on a few renaults and use Electrolube contact grease which I have found to last, unlike WD40

There's a video on YouTube with the same thing.

The OPs problem is the Fog light indicator light on the dash, not the air bag light
