Help, my indicators are not flashing!
I have a '73 bug, that i recently replaced the corroded fuses in the box. before hand the indicatorsa and hazards blinked when swithched on. Now they only come on and stay on. I definately did not tamper with any wiring. Can anyone help, is there a reset switch or somethin somewhere. My manual is no help, but i dont have a Haynes its a 1303 Superbeetle,

If you haven't messed with any wires it could be that the flasher relay has blown ............. they are only a few quid from gsf and similar places. Dead easy to replace too
