Can anyone assist with this? The indicators flash at about 30 per minute. The hazards work fine. I've replaced the flasher unit and checked connections at the indicator switch. Someone in the past has changed the green input to the flasher unit to a pick up from the instrument voltage regulator. Voltage still seems fine though. Voltage is 12.6 to the flasher unit but I haven't worked out how to check the voltage beyond that as it changes before my meter registers any change.

Thanks in advance.

It's probably an earthing problem somewhere.

The hazard and indicator circuits generally have two dedicated flasher units. Try replacing the flasher one or at least check the contacts for this part of the circuit.

Thanks John and David,

I was working on the principle that there wasn't an earthing problem as the hazards would use the same earth and I have replaced the indicator flasher unit.

My only suggestion is to remove the bulb and check the contacts; also swap the bulds individually to check for failure there.

Remove all the bulbs and clean that are working correctly via the Hazards, makes no sense to me.

Put your meter on a fixed range it probably defaults to auto ranging which takes longer

Or it could be the flasher unit.

Ensure all the bulbs are the correct rating as an increase in watts will slow down the rate & decrease in watts will speed it up
