Mk6 Transit recovery indicators not working

Postby Flusted » Mon Oct 15, 2018 8:41 pm

HELP! I've been tasked with the job of fixing my friends indicators on his mk6 transit 2.4D recovery truck
I've done plenty of googling but haven't got anywhere yet so am hoping the wealth of knowledge can be found on this forum.

So far, I know the hazard lights are working and I believe it only has the 1 5 pin relay above pedals which has also been changed.
I've removed the engine fusebox and looked for dodgy connections but no luck
Can anyone give me a list of things to check please?

I'm a marine electrician by trade and obviously have a multimeter

Thanks in adbance

I would start by looking for switched power at the indicator switch itself. I think you'll find the fuses are in the fuse box behind the glove box, but you'll find fuse info here:-

1994 Mk4 SWB 115 Minibus 70ps Di (R.I.P.)
1997 Mk5 SWB 115 Minibus 70ps Di (Gone, but not forgotten!)
2004 Mk6 SWB T280 Medium Roof 85PS 2.0 TDDi - Vantunered (Also gone)
2008 Mk7 SWB T280 Medium Roof 85PS 2.2 TDCi - Also Vantunered

x 2 and double check the flasher unit :idea: It controls both the indicators and hazards and each one can go down seperately :wink:

I've checked all the fuses and the indicator stalk has been changed for a working second hand 1.
I read something about checking theres 12v on a pink? Wire to stalk switch?

What age truck is this? there are two systems used for the indicators, and they are both quite different in there operation.
