Hi everyone , first problem ive had in nearly 3 years ....my indicators have suddenly stopped working. Indicated to turn and heard a wierd noise like a scratching sort of sound and now nothing at all , got a few angry toots from behind as i turned on my way home ,in the end had to resort to hand signals (no not those ones)
Any ideas Fuse possibly?
Thanks in advance
Rich

Most likely suspect is the flasher unit which I BELIEVE is located in the steering column shroud?. Did the noise you describe appear to come from that area?.
UPDATE. Here

Thanks simmo , will check that tomorrow, luckily i have my dads mercedes c220 i can use in the morning . Talking of which ......horrible car , its put me off ever owning a merc . Dont get me wrong its a decent enough car just find it uncomfortable , find the seats to small and leg room is poor , that could be down to the fact im used to the seats of the scorpio tho , apart from a range rover im yet to find a car with seats as goog as you get in the scorp....

I know when I looked it was difficult to spot.
Found this in another thread:

It won't be marked R29 but I believe it is black with 3 pins.
