My indicator light (On the dash) stays permanantly on when indicator stick is either up or down, Non of the lights come on at all, and I can here a ticking noise from like behind the spedo but its not like the ticking you here when your indicators are flashing because its random, some times really fast other time doesnt do it for a bit then does tick.

Ive checked all the fuses and its not a bulb because my hazards are still working and all the lights flash normal.

Any ideas what the problem is?

not neccessarily more likely to not work at all really it def worth checking the earth but sounds more likely a relay prob but hard to tell without being in the car yourself! LOL

I went to se Steve Smith who still works at vauxhall (Perrys Doncaster) He gave me the part numbers for the relay and I got one from a scrappers for £2 it sorted the problem but it keeps doing it every now and then, when it does it if I turn the hazard switch on and then of (Say with the indicator to turn left) when I turn the hazard switch off the indicators work
It may well be the hazard switch?

Aye it is the hazard switch. On a normal working corsa, if you unplug the hazard switch, they will get the identical fault to what you are having.

Try taking out ur centre console, then having to pop out really quick not having time to put it back together, then realising you have no indicators
