Default RHS indicators not working

HI all
The RHS indicators on my TX5 are not working. The LHS flashes as normal

The relay has a rapid clicking sound

I checked and have replaced all 3 bulbs (side, rear & front) which didn't resolve the issue. The fuse is OK , otherwise the LHS wouldn't work

Any suggestion on my next steps

thanks
in advance

Hi. Try operating the hazard switch a few times to clean the switch contacts. Cheers MD

Hi Foxtrot3

I tried that and the LHS indicators work but not the right.
I'm wondering if it could be a switch ion the indicator stalk?

Hi. Doubt its the stalk as it does something when you use it. only other thing I can think of is a short somewhere. Does it have a trailer plug or has any work been done on it lately (new stereo or speakers, the refitting of trims with screws instead of clips or any accident damage. Cheers MD

I'm thinking it's the flasher relay (if it has one).

Hi. Quite a possibility as they, like mazdas, had a funny 2 way flasher that did left and right using different signals in to it to get different feed to the lights but in 20 years I never sold one or saw a faulty one. I was saving this for last response before saying take it to a sparky. Cheers MD
