Alrite folks new member here, i've myself a weird one. Recently my left indicator decided it wanted to started flashing irrationally and faster than normal inside the car, yet outside the whole nearside of my signals had stopped flashing. So i decided to phone for vauxhall to check it out but also the AA to see if it was summat daft like a bulb or connection. The AA bloke arrived, checked it and could not work out why it was happening so he looked on his little laptop and said that corsa c's had a problem logged with the Body Control Module getting water in them sometimes and causing similar problems. But by now they were flashing ok again so he advised me to go to the dealer as a precaution. So I took it to vaux they stuck tech 2 on it and it showed no fault codes so they basically told me to just see how it went. Which was ok for the next 2 weeks until yesterday when it decided to have a disco again. Just wondered if any of ya had any ideas, would be very grateful for any help or advice cheers. Mike
Normally a fuse on its way out...

my indicator does the same took it to vauxhal they sed need whole new head lamp on left side. i no i got a vauxhal myself but to be honest i think they r crap i had too many problems wit mine n only had it yr n half
the problem you have is a fault with the indicator relay, its really common and easy 2 fix, its in the black box to the right of the battery. open that up by unscrewing all the screws and change the yellow relay 4 a new one from vx, job done

yeah worked for vauxhall for 10years
Glad someone has put this thread up.
Mine has done this for 7 months now and once it has caused an accident with me and another vehicle yet my local dealer feel it isnt there problem even though one person there has told me they know the problem and the part was ordered on june 26th and still hasnt arrived yet so they cannot book my car in. I double checked last Saturday and still no part :)
I for this reason have now given up :)

Just had mine done with gear linkage think i have a thread on here in genral chat bout it.
You need a new relay and connector like mine by the sounds of it. common fault as side repaters let water in. xx
where is the BCM?Next to the bulkhead in the passenger corner under the bonnet. If looking in the engine from the front it's in the back right corner to the right of the battery under a plastic cover. Most wiring channels along here and many people use this as a route inside with wiring from the battery allowing moisture ingress and damage to the BCM

nice one :thumbs:
My indicator does something on the same lines but instead of flashing it stays on constantly.
Even when I have turned left or right and the indicator stalk has gone up
