OK tried to take the Alfetta for MOT today, retest. Failed on a couple of minors, perished steering gaiter, and indicators which packed up on the first right turn I took on the way to the station.

Replaced the indicator relay, tested it and it worked fine on the left turn. When I tried the right, the dash light stayed lit and when I got out to check the indicator nothing was on. When I got into the car the relay was smoking! I removed it pronto, did some research and cleaned the indicator socket, which was a bit crusty. I tried to test the lights, but fuse no 3 blew as soon as I switched them on - no indicator relay present.
Does this make any sense?
Any ideas???
Thanks Rich
