    Indicators

    Ok, fitted a nice 'new' centre console on my 260z (thanks pmac!) and all went smoothly apart from a different fixing for the choke which I sorted. All bolted in and back together and I discover that the indicators are not working. The hazards work ok but the seperate indicators don't? Any...
