On my 240Z I've noticed that when I turn on either my indicators or hazard lights (when the engine is not running) the voltage at the fuse box drops to around 10.5v. Then it recovers to battery voltage. i.e. when the lights are actually on all is OK, but when the flasher can is 'charging' then the voltage drops.
This has a knock-on result of my fuel pump cutting out because there is not sufficient voltage to drive the relay.
When the car is running then the voltage is more constant and not an issue.
I assume this is not normal? I haven't started checking earths, etc. yet but I guess this could be the cause. Or do I need a new flasher can?
Any advice gratefully received!
