Sometime it flashed slowly, and getting slower and slower, then stopped flashing at all, and the green arrow on my dash stay on there.
Is it an easy problem to fix? Anyone know how to fix it? Thanks in advance! |

Check if you have any indicator lights not on. If indicator lights on more than likely flasher cube needs replacement. (located in fusebox)

Indicator relay, as said above. Its a pretty cheap fix as well.
You can also just get in there and give it a clean, or a wiggle, sometimes it can make it work again for a while.

step 1. locate flasher relay (see below diagram)
step 2. remove step 3. whack it on the concrete/gutter/road about 5 times step 4. replace step 5. try, find it works, say 'why the hell did doing that fix it?' step 6. from now on realise that that the tick-ah-tick-ah comes from the little cube relay in the fusebox and not behind the little green arrow on the cluster step 7. do a burnout

I'd change the relay.
Mr Hardware has got the good oil! Quick and easy to do. GK

remember, only do step 7 when indicator is safely working again.
