Ok vs commodore !!! The indicators won't work at all nothin on dash no lights no clicks neither will the hazards the fuse is no. 14 and it is fine it also does the windscreen wipers they work fine !!! The flasher relay does not get 12 volts to it I had 2 short wires and connected from relay to its holders the earth and the indicator wires and ran a direct 12 volt supply to the relay and that works so its the power supply to the flasher relay !!! But where does this come from its a blue wire with white strip and goes onto a bundle of wires and dissapears ???

Change your hazard light switch. The power for the indicators goes through that.

Just had a look and the hazard light switch was all plugged in properly ,unplugged it and made sure but still no indicators and no hazards !!! Anyone got another idea or could tell me the path of power to the indicators I have power at the fuse where does it go from there ??? No I don't want to just loop the power from there to the flasher relay I know I can but I won't it fixed properly that's a last resort !!!

How about the indicator stalk itself? The connections get dirty and worn on that too.

Did you check to see if you have power at the hazard switch?

Heres the deal. use your keyhead to lock and unlock the car. Do your lights flash? next, replace your switch, dont just fiddle. if it has a broken circuit inside the switch, then you generally wont see it from the outside. have you recently had the dash appart? if so check to see that you have the correct connector to the right switch. the rear demister and the hazard switch use the same connector. the hazard switch harness is the one with more wires in it. last but not least make sure that your flasher relay is indeed working.
