Just a few questions. When I put on the left indicator, it blows the fuse. The wiring behind is all ok but still don't know why it does it.
The petrol gauge doesn't seem to work either, ever since the fuses started blowing it hasn't worked. Please can someone help?

Are you 101% certain the wiring is ok as this is looking very much like the problem. How have you connected the wires, tell me you didn't use blue scotchlok connectors.

No, its all on bullets. It was all working fine before but now it's not all working. It's something to do with the lights on the dash when the indicators come on because it blows a fuse when you put the hazards on as well.

I suppose its possible you have a faulty indicator relay, but personally, I would go for the dash wiring. Has it been working ok for long before it went wrong, or has it been fitted recently?

I would try the indicator relay first to eliminate that, then maybe put a test meter over the dash wiring.

Cheers, will do that tomorrow and see what happens. Another thing is sometime it works and sometimes it doesn't. Just thought I'd tell you to see if you can think of anything else it could be.

I'm still sure its gonna be the dash wiring personaly, it sounds like its making intermittent contact. Sorry, can't suggest anything else at the moment.
