Hi Ed, please see the following:

http://www.tramontana.co.hu/citroen/electric/fuses.php

The relays are behind the fuses in the box. It could be that the traffic indicator one has merely worked loose. That's what happened to me with one of the other relays once - took ages to locate the fault that was blowing one or two related fuses! Turned out that a passenger had probably kicked the fusebox open with her foot and disturbed the relay.

Cheers,

Mark.

Safer than putting the relay in the roof above the back seats though... :wink:

Cheers Mark, I only got the benefit of your wisdom on arriving home after the witching hour :( Luckily a text from Doc prescribing the hammer treatment to the offending relay proved to be the right medicine :wink: Flashers now erratic but at least working :)

Ah yes Phil, footprints on the rooflining, happy days :wink: :lol:

I'll dig you a unit out mate.

I shall never again be increasing the carnal score anywhere near my cars, not after the last one put a bloody great dent in the O/S wing...

She didn't even look that fat.

Ho hum.
Smokes lots, because enough's enough already!

Far too many BX's, a bus, an ambulance a few trucks, not enough time and never enough cash...
