Fitted my morrettes the other day and because there was no indicators in headlights the others flashed well fast.
I have morette indicators but one never had a plug on it. I clicked in the one that does and the other I baired the wires and used connectors and taped up.
But when I put on indicators it kept popin the fuse number 20. It was originally a 15amp fuse so put another one in and same again. So thought I'd try a 20amp but also keeps blowing!!
Any ideas?

Must be shorting somewhere. Disconnect the indicator and try again, see if it pops. If not you'll know that's the issue.
Don't bodge it with a bigger fuse

Well if youve just joined one side out with no bulb in then thats your direct short surely.

One indicator has a plug, so I clicked it together.
The other side don't have a plug so I baired the wires on the car and baired the wires on the indicator loom and connected the two browns together and the black and black and thin green(driver side).
But when I put indicator stalk up or down it pops the fuse!

Try wires other way around?
I've found so many wiring bodged over the years. Somebody may have just stuck any old coloured wiring there

What did you do with the wires after joining them?
If they're touching ground anywhere that will be the problem.

Try taking the bulbs out then try the stalk again. If it still blows disconnect an indicator at a time intill it works.
You might have a broken indicator
