Dear All,

Took my car out for drive post clutch replacement (due to seized throwout bearing) and car shifted great (thanks again John!).

But during short drive noted that turn signals don't "blink" - they illuminate and the indicators light up on the speedometer - but not clicking sound and not blinking? Would this be a relay issue? Or a ground issue? Checked on fuses and they looked good, loosened them and repositioned in case I had some resistance from corrosion, no changed. Any advice appreciated.

Best,
Reg

Thanks - but which relay exactly? Not the headlights, and not the ones on the board in the engine compartment? a relay on the fuse panel?

On my 1975 car it's the boxy, square relay on the fuse panel. Not sure if it's the same for your car.
