im also going to change the indicator relay but not sure where it is, cheers

 

[jaym1806]

changed the indicator stalk today and still no luck

The indicator relay is in the uch....

Up in the passenger footwell

Just turn on the indicators and go pulling out the relays one at a time to figure out which one it is
