Anyone know where the indicator tick is generated from. My indicators are working fine and the flashers on the dash are ok, just dont have any noise. I assume its not like the old relay type.
Cheers

I think it's generated by the instrument cluster. 2006 TDV6 SE Auto Buckingham Blue

The tick is electronically generated ...in fact ISTR a thread that says if you have other warning bongs going off when the indicator on ...the tick noise is overidden. Haven't tried it meself though. Powered by TorqTune
In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life: .................It goes on.

DG thats correct.
If you have an indicator tick and change the suspension for instance the supension bong replaces the indicator tick.
it seemed a bit weird to begin with, but you get used to it. If the indicator tick isnt working at all then it sounds like a problem. I had an 58 D3 last week and the tick was working on that one  Duncan

ISTR the tick and the bings/bongs come from the little vent to the left of the steering wheel. That's also where the temp sensor is for the climate control. bobby 'when I nod my head, you hit it' crispbox

I have just tried to set of a few differnt warning bongs and it looks like I have lost all bongs/bings/ticks. Looks like I will have to go to the dealer and get them to check it out. Shame the warranty run out 7 weeks ago. Hopefully its not going to be big dollars.

Have finally been to the dealer and I need to have the instrument pack replaced. Glad I bought the extended warranty.
