Hi all,

Noticed this on my way to work this morning and just wondered if anyone had experienced this before.

When I switch my Indicators on the Handbrake Warning Light flashes dimly in time with the indicator light, does not do it when Handbrake applied.

Had a quick look on google and people suggest a new Binnacle may be needed as when plugged into a fault code reader nothing comes up.

Not wanting to shell out on a new binnacle as yet, so may have to live with it, but wondered if anyone else has had this problem.

Cheers

Davy

Not a problem I’ve encountered before

It is your indicator cluster earth, I had this on a nissan primera a few years ago, added an earth cable to metal plate which holds the lamps on cluster then the problem disappeared.

Funny thing is it’s never done it since, wondering if it’s maybe because the car had been laid up at the garage.
