Ok so when I indicate left the right indicator on clocks flashes if I indicate right it works as it should on clocks however when I pull back on high beam the left indicator on clocks lights up??
What's weirder is that outside the indicators and high beam work as they should I've changed the stalk no change I've changed the clocks with no change either it's really strange and doing my head in!!
I've checked t.he wiring and earth and all seems as it should
Really confused????

 

I'm really confused over your writing. Really hard to figure out what you're saying. The indicator on clocks flashes? What clocks? Do you have the chrono package? My MINI has both indicators integrated into the tach cluster, only one light flashes when you pull in either direction on the stalk.

 

I have the sat nav and twin clocks(gauges above the steering wheel



As you can see you get the arrows for left and right turn and that's where the fault is
Turn left the right arrow flashes
Turn right the right arrow flashes (as it should)
Pull back stalk for hub lights and the left arrow lights and not the blue hb light

 

Anyone?

 

Faulty directional switch. Guaranteed!

 

If you press the hazard switch only the right arrow flashes?

 

Not sure how to post video I have a clip of what happens

 

Checked the indicator stalk and changed it over but still not working, still really stumped by this one ???

 

Give us some context. Did it used to work correctly and these problems started to happen? Or did you just purchase the car recently and it has never worked correctly?

Hard to understand what you are you asking. Or are you telling us that's what happens? Please communicate more clearly.

Best thing to do is upload it to YouTube and post the link here.

 

The car had been garaged for the last year everything was fine I've checked there is no dampness anywhere in the car it's really strange

 

it must be something to do with the passenger side as the right signal works fine? ive tried a different bcm as I though it might be that still no joy?
any ideas anyone

 

Is the problem only on the gauges and not the exterior lights? If your exterior lights work correctly, then switches are working correctly and also the BCM (which controls the exterior lights).

Check the condition of your car battery. Low voltage can cause strange things to happen in the electronics.

 

yes its only on the gauges? the exterior operates as it should ??
the gauges have also been checked but the problem still persists
the battery level is good, alternator charging very well
its driving me crazy cant understand whats going on

 

its also strange that when the hazard lights are pressed only the arrow on the drivers side illuminates?

 

The only idea I have left is to try resetting the electronics by disconnecting the battery for awhile.

 

Thanks for your ideas and help,mate I've already tried that too at a complete loss as what to check next

 

Ok il add this into the mix to get you lot even more confused as I am!!
Tonight turned on my cruise control and guess what? The high beam symbol lit lol something is seriously mixed up

 

Quick question are the stalks wired through the slip ring?

 

Does anyone have a wiring diagram for the steering column area for the r53 please?

 

I would like to know if the wiring for cruise c is in the same block as the turn signals/high beam on that stalk

 

No its not

 

Hmmm I'm really lost now then lol

 

Anyone?
