Hi,

As you guys were so helpful with my last problem I thought I'd ask again. After t(hanks to your help) I fixed my windscreen wipers, I was driving home and my indicators only worked around half the time, then the next journey.... no problem, then after that again the same problem. As they do work it can't be the lamps which is the extent of my knowledge. Is this a problem with Hyundai's? Sound like I'm going to have to take it to a garage asap.

Thanks,

Figgsy

Not known as a problem - electrics are generally good

Would appear to be a relay issue to me, do your hazard lights work ok?

Also, more worryingly, just seen this:

Hope it aint the case for you, mate...

Thanks for the quick reply.

No the hazards have the same problem, sometimes they're working and sometimes they're not.

Did you have a look at the BCM/Indicator relay thread - when they 'fail', is the drivers side on all the time???

Seen the other thread. Forgot mention in my previous response that it's not the same side they're either both working or neither, so if it is the same problem it's different symptoms. It's as if there's a loose connection because I could be flicking the indicator on rapidly and nothing happens, then 2 minutes later it's working for the rest of the journey, then I get back in the car and nothing.

Could very well be the stalk itself losing connection through vibration.

^ No, because it is affecting the hazards too therefore not a stalk issue

As said before, have a good look around the relay and fuse as a starter...

I just found this from a google search:

Question
The turn signals and hazards stop working in my wifes 97 hyundia Elantra. It is not a blown fuse. And im having trouble determining if it is the switch that needs to be replaced or some other part. Please Help.

Answer
The two most common failures that cause your symptoms are the hazard switch and the flasher relay. If you can make the turn signals/hazard lamps start working by cycling the hazard switch in and out a few times, then the problem is definitely the hazard switch. If not, you'll need to check to see whether the flasher relay is receiving the proper input. You should have power in the brown/red (or yellow/red) wire and ground in the black wire. If you do, replace the flasher relay. If not, check to be sure the hazard switch is properly plugged in. If so, replace the hazard switch.

I've booked it into my local garage now, I'll report back when I find the problem.
