AE101 Indicator problem

**limbo** · 07-05-2006, 07:40 PM

Hi guys got a bit of a prob with the GF's car. THe indicator light just stopped blinking.
It just kinda stays on.
She took it to a mechanic and they siad apparently they said it was 'flash box'? i've never heard of one of those.

Anyone know where or what it looks like? how much would i be looking at to get one?
Any help would be appreciated.

Yeah i have herd of em.

I call em flasher cans.

They are usually found up under the drivers side dash.

They look like a round relay usually with a steel outside. I cant really give anymore info than that as i have never changed one in an AE101

Do the hazzards still flash??? They prob wont if the indicators dont.

If its a flasher unit just go to a local wrecker and grab one or a hand full.Be easier than paying $38.Very rare they give up.

btw i fixed it got a new flasher from Mekong spares for $15, the flasher is at the back of the drivers kickboard, just needed to undo the door jam and kick board and it was just stickout easy to find, in case anyone else need to replace one
