The switch wasn`t working and I found a broken wire on it tried it and still no light, measured the voltage at the interior light and that was correct .The bulb looked perfect but was open circuit fitted a new bulb and fine.Ive just rewired the indicators and trafficators,so now the trafficators rise and stay and on,and the indicators flash .Not very original but nice to actually use the trafficators Bit difficult to show working on a photo.Len :P :P

Well done,
Flashing indicators are an important safety measure, very few drivers today recognise semaphore arms.

Well done getting flashers AND semaphores to work! You can buy torpedo shape LED flashing bulbs, I have them on my ZA Magnette
