[diesel_mercedes] Re: Turn Signal Assistance

 

Rob,

My problem was actually my hazard switch. I toggled it back and forth a few times and things are back to normal.

I do need to get some contact cleaner into the switch so this does not crop up again anytime soon.

Thanks for the help.

Stan,

Thanks for the reminder on this. I have seen that round white light on for some time in my car and had not realized its purpose. Sounds like I have several bulbs to check and perhaps replace all of my fuses as a precaution.

Thanks also for the reminder of just how well thought out our cars are.
