Suspect that the relay for the right indicator is faulty...
Is this anything special? Where is it located, somewhere under the dashboard?

Re: Indicator relay
Hi Robert,
This subject is mentioned in a post from Felix - he states that the relay is located inside the steering column /steering wheel needs to come off to access.

Re: Indicator relay
Seems there is more at fault,…
The right parking lights now stay on… is this controlled by the indicator relay?
Cam someone please post the wiring diagram around this?
Help help help!!!

Re: Indicator relay
Hi Robert,
sounds like a problem at the indikator switch. I have had a similar problem with the high beam switch. Sometimes, in spring after the winter pause the high beam switch doesn't work correctly.
There is a lot of grease inside the switches and over the years this grease solidifies and so the contacts could get stuck.
I send you an email with the diagrams soon.
regards
Michael

Re: Indicator relay
Hi Robert,
I don't think that the problem is the relay but if so, the relais of the e31, e32 e34 and e36/Z3 should fit too.
If you have a smaller steering wheel, you can try an indicator swich of e34. When you connect the wires from the Z1 harness to e34 switch (the wires are soldert to the switch) it will work perfect with a small steering wheel because the lever of the e34 switch is a little bit shorter.

Re: Indicator relay
I'll se if I can do something to the indicator switch...
Maybe a good clean with WD40 or something might do the trick, it is accessible now anyway.

Re: Indicator relay
Well, the relay is no longer available, so if that is indeed the problem, I need to find a solution somehow...(any one got one for sale??)
It could be the indicator stalk, I cleaned it with WD40 (somewhat) but may have to investigate further with a multi meter to see if the relay gets connected (thanks to Stoertje for the wiring diagram!!), I still suspect the relay as when the hazard switch is applied it still doesn't work...
