[Kandikid]

Just finished putting my new headlights in and when i turn the lights on....my indicators come on..and stay on =/ ...

then when i indicate the side and rear ones flash really fast and the front ones still just stay on?

will need more info,

2 new headlights, or bulbs? did u re-wire anything? tried disconnecting the headlights again? looked for loose earth wires? fuses? tried turning on hazard lights? etc etc

Generally when indicators flash fast it means that one or possibly more indicator lights are not working or plugged in correctly so dont worry about the ones flashing fast (as you know its the front indicator lights that aren't working)

You may have a fault with the way you've plugged in the new headlights or somethings gone faulty with the indicator relay (which would seem a bit coincidental)

You might be able to just call up your local sparky who can offer you better advice

Ive put in a new set of headlights coz i cracked my old ones (also have new bulbs and threw old ones out)

the headlights themselves work fine on both high and low beam.

its just the indicators that are giving me hassles.

With hazard lights all work except the front ones.

Ive tried disconnecting and reconnecting them, ive also tried using the plugs from the only set with the new bulbs

and no success.

nope..havent tried to rewire anything ...

I'll check the fuses when i get home and where would i find the earthing wire?

cheers

might sound silly but make sure you have not plugged the park lights to the indicators and visa versa...

thinking this as you said the hazards work except the front...

[Kandikid]

i hadnt thought of that.. =P

ill give it a shot when i get home

thx

ok..so i was fidling around tonight....and i just realized...that the indicators only work when the hazard lights are used (minus the front ones which only come on..and stay on solid....when i turn the lights on)

when i sit in the car and indicate nothing happens on the dash and nothing happens outside...except for the front ones staying on ...

the earths are connected......i checked the starter indicator and the turn signal fuses and they were ok.

ideas ppl...throw em at me....

atm all i can think of doing is getting 2 gingys and hiding em under the hood and when i indicate it jabs em and they poke there head outside..... -_-
