Despite renewing rear indicator frame connections, indicator wire (in side panel) and new rear indicators, do you think I can get the bloody things to work????
I have checked and cleaned all the earth contacts, I have tested the indicators to make sure they work, there is 12v getting to the frame connections? They did work briefly only to stop working again, I just don't know what to try next, spend most of the weekend sorting these out, and it's not even my scooter :x The front ones work, well they stay illuminated cause the back ones don't work!

Yes Gary, I have continuity. Do you think it might be the relay?

I know its a common fault on LML engines so worth replacing or using a known working indicator unit, I don't think they are expensive.
