I can't flash!

[Irishpete]

Not quite what you were thinking but last night I flashed a lorry in as it was overtaking and since then I can't flash my headlights or select main/dipped beam. Am I right in thinking it is the headlight relay under the dash that I need to replace or could it be something else?

Cheers, Pete

Are all your fuses intact Pete?

Hi Pete
I had something similar recently where I only had main beam and wouldn't flash. Turned out to be a wire that had come off in the fuse holder just behind the relay.
May be worth a try, I bought a relay unesseccesarily...

I think so - it was getting dark by the time we got in but they looked ok by the light of a torch.

Thanks, I'll look into that too - I wouldn't have thought to look at that.

I got home from work early today and decided to check it out....... it only bloody works! (I did nothing though - it had just fixed itself!)

Pity all problems didn't fix themselves

My flasher worked fine but my indicators went off!!!
So I fixed the indicators, now my flasher has gone off, it doesn't even click or feel like it's clicking up anymore! :?

Oh & I adjusted my clutch cable, so one of my headlight bulbs went off!!,!

How come every time I fix something another thing fooks up?!??? :lol:

It's obviously because your bus likes all the attention
