Indicator problem

[trundlenut]

The stalk plugs into the steering controller so could that be the cause, or the wiring.

It's simple (ish)

1. If the controller is receiving a voltage from the indicator switch (physically checked at the wire on the BCM not using live data) when you activate the high beam, then it's a switch / wiring problem

2. If the controller is not receiving the voltage it is a module problem

I can dig out the wiring diagram if you are confident to carry out these tests?

I wouldn't be confident enough to go at this myself xpower, a vag guy said to me it might a lighting control unit in behind the glove box?

The bcm that controls the lighting functions sits above the pedals, very easy to see and get to.

Any idea what they cost to replace?

Hi

I have a skoda octovia 2.0. The problem is when i apply left singnal, it indicate right for 1 or 2 second then comes back to the left and when i apply right, it indicate left for 1 or 2 second then comes back to right. Its not happening all the time but quite a lot. Any idea pls thanks

It's the indicator stalk, this happens when the internal contacts either wear or get dirty.

 

Try spraying a bit of WD40 in where the stalk enters the steering column shroud. If this doesn't work it is a steering wheel off job for either a proper clean or replacement.
