Has anyone ever had their indicator relay buzz like an angry hornet? Mine started doing it yesterday night and gradually got louder to the point I pulled the relay out and was doing hand signals out the window at night in the rain. Is this just a knackered relay or something else?

The right way,
The wrong way
And my way, which is like the wrong way but faster.

Mine did it and the relay was "chattering"and it was replaced. Just got one from my local parts factor for about £3.75

Ive had this on mine before with just a loose connection, might be worth a go bending the pins out a little?

Hope you've got the polish at the ready for Wagtail Ed.

It'll need to be in tip top condition for the run down there. Hopefully if Tims is all ok he'll be joining our convoy. 3 so far in it!

Wahey! Glad to be of assistance... with my exhaust being so loud I only noticed when it fell out and hit me on the foot!

After much poking and prodding from just about everyone I've finally got the bumper Jordi gave me bolted on.

I want to say yes but I'd best not get ahead of myself. :|
