    Current indicators

    Many thanks to everybodys help finding a wiring diagram for this problem! Narrowed it down now.
    I've been having indicator problems but I've checked the wiring thoroughly now and it's all connected just fine. Even earthed the circuits with it's own battery connection. And still not flashing.

    The relay clicks once when either side is activated but that's it. No lights.

    Is it possible these lights don't draw enough current? Or am I looking at flash relay fault? The circuit is so simple I'm at a loss what can be wrong. They aren't the stock lamps.

    If they are not 1156 (or the stock 1034) bulbs, they won't flash.

    Some smaller lights (yours might be one of them) use smaller, #67 or #89 bulbs.
    They simply don't draw enough current to trip the thermal flasher.

        Got a new relay problem solved 80 flashes per minute now exactly.

        My mot station just told me 70 flashes is advised and 80 is a bit high.

        What can I do?
