Camo Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 I am having some problems tracking down the reason why the indicators and brake lights don't work on my newly aquired 1360. last offically on the road in 1991 I am close to getting the car road worthy but the brake lights and indicators won't work.all other electrics work.all the wires seem to be correct and connected, there is no noise from the flasher unit.is there a fault that would affect both? a fuse perchance ?again though I don't have a manual at present.I have noticed that the voltage regulator has a terminal not used which has a broken connector still attached, it has 2 connectors with white wires, one a double the other a single and a third that is green/dark green, should there be another connection ?any advice is welcomedthanksStuart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard B Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 Both the brake lights & the indicators are fed from the ignition switch. Do the windscreen wipers work? Because they are also ignition fed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Camo Posted November 30, 2007 Author Share Posted November 30, 2007 windscreen wipers work as does fuel gauge, heater fan etc,, side and headlights work too. I have bypassed the brake light switch and still nothing. I will have to check all earths etc then, thanks for the quick replysStuart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard B Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 Do you have a wiring diagram for a 13/60? trace the source backwards. Always worth getting a 12v electrical probe or a cheap multimeter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Camo Posted December 2, 2007 Author Share Posted December 2, 2007 All sorted !Indicators were a defunct flasher unit and brake lights were 2 dodgy bulbs...I was assuming it was something more difficult, always start with the obvious it seems.Now I have all the electrics working, great news.thanksStuart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
