Evening All, Basically use the indicator as normal, and sometimes the relay will keep clikcing, the light on the dash wont, nor does the bulb, but you can hear it clicking away, can get rid of it by sticking the indicator back on and off, but may look a bit weird when I suddenly start indicating..

Any Ideas?
Just wired in a microphone from down the back of the headunit, to under the panel just above the pedal (the one that comes off with 3 torx screws) But dont think I hit anything, and its only a problem that occurs sometimes.

Cheers, Ed

Sounds like a loose connector on the flasher unit...pop out the hazard switch and check the connectors on the back

I started a thread a few month back with same problem, it does your ehad in after a while dont it?

I had to replace the indicator stalk. Its a common problem on many Skodas, hence are the same buid as Dubs.

Due to wear a tear really, once you replace it the clickig will go.

think i paid around £45ish for new stalk, and its easy to install.

Disconnect battery wait 10 minutes, them remove the steering wheel and it just slides off.

Cheers you two for the replies, have stopped me worrying a bit thats for sure.

Bit late now but I'll have a quick search if there's any special way to get the switch out, if not, screwdriver play time. Will see if I can fix the problem if not think the stalk may be next port of call.

I do feel it may be a connector as only gone funny since I've had my arm lodged behind the steering wheel feeding wires..

Screwdirver behind hazard switch red cover thing, out it popped, broke one of those 2 tiny plastic tabs .
BUT.. Now it wont go back in, I push it back on but it doesnt sit flush, I may be just doing it retardedly, but its mighty annoying, the clicking I would cope with, I cant cope with not having my nice hazard switch sitting smoothly

bring it round if you want the suspension, and i'll have a look at it.

ive got spare switch and stalk aswel!
