The green turn signal indicator light in the tach gauge on my '74 1.8 stays dimly light whenever the ignition is on. The turn signal lamps all work correctly and the indicator light flashes brightly with the relay when the turn signal is on, but it always glows dimly when the signal isn't on. I have no idea where to begin to diagnose the problem. Anybody else have this/fix this on their car?

I don't mind spending the money on the flasher if it has a hope of fixing the problem. Agreed, it hasn't gotten any worse over 4 years, and sometimes gets a little better! Was looking for some confirmation that the flasher could be the problem before just replacing it, since it seems to work correctly otherwise.
Thanks for all the suggestions and advice. This is a great forum! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smilie_pokal.gif) |
