| Whats going on?! The other week I kinda wacked the indicator on as I approached my turn. From that point on the indicator was about 3 times as fast as the other side. Not if I put the hazards on, just to turn left.
Then it just went back to normal about 2 weeks later.
But now this morning I get in the car & my clock isn't working?! Do I have gremlins in my wires? | |

| Ok... Your left indicator flashing too fast means you have blown a back or front indicator bulb? Or by the sounds of it a bad connection at one of the lamp holders? As for your clock.... Probably Gremlins? | |

| Both front & back are working fine. Maybe the connection.. It goes in on Monday for some work so will ask them to look for me. Clock isn't a big deal but a pain none the less. | |

| Fiona, are all of your other electrical instruments on your dash working? Instrument panel lights, climate control read out, radio ect... If all those parts are working then it's most likely the clock itself or the connection plug on the back of the clock? To get to the back of the clock the face of the dash has to be removed, there are screws in each of the air vents and screws above your speedo and around next to the steering column on the left and a couple under the release leaver for the petrol flap, then it can be gently removed keeping in mind that there are a few clips that will make it a little difficult. Good luck. | |

| No, My air con / vents etc have never worked. You know the bits where you slide the thing across to pick your settings. I have no back light on those & never have. If I take a photo of my Dash. can you photo shop it in someway to mark where there screws are to remove it as I still haven't put in the FM expander thingy on the radio.
I will have a look a little later but with my fat pregnant gut its hard to get in & around to find them all. I am still hunting down the darn water leak when it rains. It has to be the windscreen. But yeah being in Cairns the weather isn't so friendly for sitting in a car while getting frustrated at removing bits. I will end up being in a sauna LOL | |

| Ok it would appear the clock is a fuse as my cig lighter isn't working either. So while I have searched the forum (how I discovered teh cig lighter & clock where on the same fuse) I can not find where the the fuse box thingy is! Its not anywhere that has been said in any of the posts I have looked at here on the forum. | |
