Quick one, something weird happened to me today.

Drive my car to work today, still puts a smile on my face

On my drive home, the indicator signal stopped working on the cluster. The lights actually work when moving the stick but on the cluster nothing? Tried both sides and emergency lights.

Where would checks fuses?

Really hoping not the case, the rest of the lights work. When starting battery light background lights also. And the gauges.

Follow this video link to access the test function to check whether the light works or not. If it doesn't light up in this test then you know you have an issue with light which maybe just be a dead LED chip.

Cluster issue.
Combined Electronics or OBD Worx Gert aka Ratslaaf.

Not sure whether Gert will do it but pm him you have nothing to loose

Are both indicator lamps not working in the cluster?

I don't know if it will help though, but have you tested the cluster, using cluster test from hidden OBC Menu?

Edit: Seems Serg_ZA beat me to it!

So, followed the video steps, and it's working on the test. When I put the ignition on the light signals work perfectly. When I start the car, no signals

Resolved - Disconnected the battery terminal to continue my investigation and found a power wire for the amp installed in the car lose and touch the body. Removed and connected the battery and bobs your uncle she works.
