hi i have just bought a 1.7i ford puma today and everything seems fine apart from one thing i discovered tonight. well i was driving on a dark road and decided to put my full beams on, not knowing that i had to push the lever forwards i tried pulling backwards. i didnt use loads of force just a gentle pull. right after that my indicators stopped working, when i tried to indicate i could hear a sort of crackling/electric sound and they didnt flash. ive just been to try it now and they seem to work again, but pulling back on the lever stops them working again. the wierd thing is when i put the hazard lights on they work again.
now i know what youre going to say, dont pull back on the indicator stalk! but there is obviously a problem and i need to fix it incase it happens again for some reason. does anybody have any ideas what might be wrong? could be a loose wire perhaps but i wont know til tomorow i dont fancy tinkering with it tonight.
thanks for any replies
