OK so had a pinched wire in the tail light. My hazards are working now, at normal speed, and my indicator fuse isn't being blown. But I have no indicators still.

Gotta be from immobilizer.. gonna just get blue slip guy to do it.

Exact same issue I had with my fuse blowing...

You over that satisfaction of fixing yourself...

But yeah, know how you feel .. Am much rather enjoying driving new cars where all these problems belong to the dealership ..

It'll be a different fuse too

AH! The fuse in the drivers footwell! Good thinking Shane-o-saurus-rex!

And yeah Craig, if its not this other fuse then eh. Everything I've done in this built has had a problem with it

Like I said just want it registered at this stage.

Yeah it's in the inside one man, you would've blown both

Yup, had a look at the fuse box diagrams yesterday. I'll go out and look in a sec.

Good thinking Shane-o, cheers c**t

Yip, I had to replace the fuse inside, and the engine bay fuse when I crushed the wire.

Fixed it. While there was a crushed wire in both tail lights, the plug for power going to my left front light set (indicators, fogs, parkers) was not plugged in.

I fixed the pinched wire first on the right side tail light, so right side flashed normally and all worked. Left side indicators still flashing quickly and front left not working so I took out front left bulb and it still flashed quickly (side and rear) and front not working at all, replaced bulb still nothing. Took out side indicator, still flashed quickly. Found pinched wire in tail light, fixed it. Still flashed quickly.. checked to see if parkers and fogs worked. Right side did, left side didnt. Odd though, I never touched that wiring loom.. but anyway. Found a female plug that was empty so figured had to be that. Found its partner (tucked up under guard liner wtf?) plugged it in and she's good now.

Wiring is done

Thank you for your input guys!

Since you're into it now... take the door skins off and see how the immobilizer was wired into your windows... should just have to cut out where it is spliced into the factory wiring and rejoin the wire
