How do you know something is wrong with the indicator stalk?

Issues are usually pretty apparent. When the stalk is used, the indicators fail to operate unless the stalk itself is manipulated to make the connections. Sometimes though, they fail to operate at all in either direction no matter what you try to do. This is a very common occurrence on Peugeot and Citroen models especially.

When should you replace the indicator stalk?

As direction indicators are paramount to road safety, their correct operation is required by law. Therefore as soon as an issue arises, it needs to be rectified with immediate action.

What happens during an indicator stalk replacement in Port Talbot?

Because the indicator stalks are usually steering column mounted, they are secured in place behind the steering wheel, which will require its removal. As the steering wheel will contain an airbag, this will need disarming prior to any replacement work. The mechanic will test the indicator stalk for its operation. Mechanic will ensure the electrical system is intact (fuses, wiring, bulbs etc). If the indicator stalk is confirmed as the issue, the mechanic will proceed with its replacement. Mechanic will disarm the steering wheel airbag, usually by means of either removing the SRS system fuse or by disconnecting the battery. The steering wheel airbag will be removed followed by the steering wheel itself The indicator stalk is replaced Mechanic will then re-assemble the parts and reconnect the SRS (airbag) system Mechanic will clear any SRS error codes and test the stalk

“After failing my MOT due to a broken indicator switch, I went to several garages and was quoted approx £270 for parts and potentially 2 hours of labour... I did some research and found click mechanic who quoted a decent price of £170! Andrew came on time (found it amazing they come to your house!) and fixed my indicator in 15 minutes and was brill! Couldn’t reccommend Andrew / click mechanic enough! Don’t often leave reviews but this definitely deserves one. If you don’t want to get ripped off by normal garages use click mechanic!! Especially as I’m a female in my 20s, garages often charge ridiculous prices lol defo will be using click mechanic from now on :) cheers guys x”
