Indicators sometimes work on mk 4 Golf! Blubs are ok.

Dear AB.

Just noticed that all the indicators will work for a few seconds and then not at all. There is the normal clicking noise behind the dash and all obviously all the bulbs are ok. After a few seconds, no clicking and no indicator. Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks.

My indicators only work about half the time too!

More on this. Lightly tapping the hazard warning light switch (without switching on) seems to bring the indicators to life. Took the switch off and firmly refitted. I am no sparky so will get a mate to take a look as the problem returns now and again. Seems to be a loose connection somewhere.

Dont worry about it, most of the cars on the road dont have working indicators.

Hi TTG,vw's, audi's, skoda's all suffer from hazard light switch faults, not expensive to buy from vw's and easy to replace.

Sorry, late with the solution. Mate fitted new relay...sorted.
