1989 indicator arm on a 1999

Postby Ron » Thu Feb 02, 2006 10:26 pm

Would the indicator arm from a 1989 Transit fit a 1999 one (T reg)? Were there any design changes durng this time?

Although mine indicates fine, it doesn't automatically turn off. I have investigated the switch, and it seems faulty. Thought it might be a cheap repair if it was compatible.

Cheers.

Thanks for that.

Hopefully another repair in the bag. ;)

Anyhoo, I'm booked in with Rover to give it the once over soon, so I'm sure he'll make sure that's not the case.

I know 87 and 93 are different i just tried to do that swap :(
87 has 2 plugs per switch and 93 has 1 (longer and thinner), didn't want to cut the loom so used me old switches on the later colum (i put the 93 colum in me 87 recovery).
