Hi everyone,
I have a 1976 2+2 that I've been slowly restoring for years. Almost ready for blueslip, just needs horn and indicator stalk working.
I bought a new switch which fixed both issues (i didn't even know the horn was connected to any of it), but regardless they both work now. The problem is that when I indicate (either left or right), the indicators don't turn on at all, but the headlights do. They dint flash, they simply come on whenever the switch is turned.
Also, the new switch advised it had hazard light cables that can be ignored, but was otherwise supposed to be same wiring (although some different coloured wires were a worry). If I put the original switch back in, the indicators again work. It's same wires, If I disconnect just the left/right indicator wires, everything works 100% (except for the indicators of course) ..
How can 1 switch work, the other turn on an unrelated system ... is there a short in the switch?
Any suggestions ?
Any thoughts?
What might be going on ?
Please help, I'm losing my mind.
