Indicator Trouble

[sharon38]

Hi. Thanks for reading this.

I am looking for a little advice for my little sisters 2001 ford fiesta freestyle. She has got problems with her indicators and I am hopeing I can put it right for her. They take longer to start blinking than they should and I think that she needs a new flasher relay ( turn start relay) but dont know where to buy one from or what kind I need. I dont have the manual at hand and am only able to get to it after my trip to the shops so if anybody knows what I need and where to get it I would be very grateful.

Thanks.

Welcome to the forum mate,

If you open the bonnet, you will see a small rectangular box on the right hand side of the car (looking forward at the engine) it will contain fuses and relays for the car, lift the lid on the box and look under the lid, you should see a full diagram of the fuse box with labels for each relay and its purpose,

Take a couple of pictures of the relay on your camera phone, take note of the car model, engine size and year then go to the nearest motor factors or worst case go to Halfords, if you cant find any other Motorfactors and show them the picture of the relay and details,

They will provide you with the part, then simply unplug the old and insert the new, swapping like for like, also endure the lid in secure on top of the box as if water gets in to it, The wipers start coming on by themselves, the horn can come on by itself etc. The car becomes possessed.

Hope this helps mate.B)

Looking for assistance. 2000 model Fiesta 1.3. Indicators and hazard flashers stopped working. Checked fuses, O.K. Bought a new flasher unit (1035579) from a parts shop, not Ford, and replaced it, in the steering column, still not working. Am I missing something? Or could I have bought a duff unit? Thanks in advance for any pointers.

Hi there I have a fiesta mk4 facelift or early mk5 1.4-cvh. None of the indicators are working but the hazards are and I have checked the fuses and I have checked the flasher relay that's underneath the light stalk. Still not working is there anything else that I can do ? Or try to get it to work again ?

Please help coz it's not good driving without it

Is the cabin heater blower working and electric windows, if fitted?
