Indicator/light switch problem.

2008 Citroen Berlingo 1.6 Diesel Multispace
Car: Citroen Berlingo
Year: 2008
Variant: 1.6 Diesel Multispace
Categories: Electrics, ECU, Warnings & Lights
A couple of days back, the indicator started to behave oddly. Indicating left works fine, but when indicating right, the indicator flashes 3 times then the headlights come on.

If I then flash the headlight main beam on/off, it continues to work.

Also, if I turn the lights fully on, the indicators work as they should.
When I turn the ignition off and open the door with the key removed from the ignition, the alarm sounds. However, if I turn the lightswitch a bit, this stops.

I have ordered a 2nd-hand full unit, but was wondering if the old one could be fixed by replacing the plunger in the end of the switch ?.

Hopefully your second hand comm unit will be the correct one as they do differ depending on equipment levels.You might be able to get your old one repaired.BBA reman do sell repaired units so it is posible

Many thanks. I will look at the replacement to make sure it is the same as it has 30 days warranty on it.
