Lots of problems!!!!

My hazards dont work but my indictors do

Sometimes my temperature gauge doesnt work! the needle doesnt move.  The next time its fine

Usually the expansion tank warning light flashes continuously!!!!

The "computer display" that shows mpg etc comes on some times other times it doesnt

finally the relay for the fuel pump needs to be fiddled with to get the pump going sometimes and seems to get quite hot!  also the fuse board around it seems a little melted from the last rely.

Could there be a common problem for some of these issues?

HELP????? :banghead:  :banghead:  :banghead:

Your Hazard fault seems similar to the problem I had with my cab, It sounds like its your hazard switch in my opinion tho.
Does your repeter light for the indicators work? Mine was intermittent and think it contributed to the fault some how. It ended up being a knackered connection on the ribbon that plugs in to the clocks in the dash.

The next obvious one is to replace the flasher relay see if that makes a differnce.

As for your fuel relay if you've already tried a new one then there's got to be a short somewhere, have a look at the cabling to see if its chaffed anywhere, that would maybe cause your scorching around the contacts.

Just reading your post again and its occured to me that most of your faults are dash clock related. maybe a dodgy connection to the main plug to the unit? check the contacts as they can be bent out, stopping good connection.

Im very confused with my hazards!  I have tried a new relay for the hazards, I have disassembled the hazard switch and it looks fine and still no joy!

when I turn on the hazards I get a solid green light. If the hazard light is off the indicators work fine.

I have checked fuse 12 and 19 also and both are fine.

All I can think of is a bad connection somewhere :banghead:

I am having a lot of trouble with the temperature gauge also.  Could this be relay 43?  has anyone any experience with this?

Does anyone know what relay 57 is???? I have on on the top of my fuse box to the right.

Finally got the hazards working!  it was a bad connection in the fuseboard behind fuse 4 all along!!!!!
