Blinker

[nico13]

I have a problem with the internal blinker light. (3.0CSA E9)
On the outside all blinkers are working but the internal warning light work only to the left.
Is this a switch problem or the blinker relay?

Kind of a common issue with different solutions.
The short cut is to change all of the working blinker lights to new and fresh ones. Worked for me and several others. Don't ask me why
Search on the forum for other solutions.
I had some internal difficulties to accept that this problem was only fixed by replacing the old but functional blinker lights, but sometime you just let it go....

Here is the old thread on blinker symptoms:

Too much resistance on right bulbs circuit. You can try new bulbs, clean their socket contacts, higher wattage bulbs. Maybe even swap bulbs left for right.

All many thanks for the support, I understand that the blinker works with a bi metal relay which is heated up depending on the load and will bent and disconnect the circuit. It then will codlin and make contact again. This explains the load dependent behaviour.
I will check all bulls and the wires. There could be still an earth problem.
Is there a more detailed electric diagram of the connections?
