N/S indicators not working

[Aldpilot]

Can anyone help on how to find out why my near side indicators have stopped working on my TR5?

Just stopped working yesterday. Cannot see an issue with wiring (but suspect that is the problem) and all 3 different bulbs are ok. Offside units still work.

Thanks. Mike

Mike, The switch, if its the same as on a 6, is a dubious design. Remove the nacelle around it and see if cleaning the contacts gets it working. Peter

If front and back and repeaters have failed then, as Peter suggests, the switch or its associated bullet connectors are suspect. Out with the test meter ,

Thanks guys.

 

Nacelle off and a fiddle and I can get it to work. Now intermittent, but with a bit more of a look etc should be back to full health.

Mike, I had to glue a wiped contact back onto the pcb-like base. That cured the odd wisp of smoke from the switch. Maybe there's a replacement that does a better job...anyone?
