So my 3 year project is on the road...first 914 i have ever owned so maybe this is normal???
when I put my turn signal on (74-2.0) the little green light on the tach flashes. when it self cancels, sometimes the green light stays on steady. If I move the signal lever a little it goes off??? just the little light not the actual signal lights on the corners any idea? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) SW |

I figured it might be a ground...years ago I owned British cars and the solution in most cases was the same Cheers |
