Is your battery fully charged, or have you tried with the engine running. Indicaters sometimes don't flash if bat is dieing.

Yeah battery fully charged they both work just not as quick as the standards, as soon as the lights are turned on the left one carrys on as normal and the right one just freezes on amber!!wierd might try some resistors or something.

i have a rear LED light with built in indicators. I tried EVERYTHING to get them to work/flash properly. I have 4 oxford nano indicators on the bike and there was no combination of resistors wiring etc that made everything work. In the end I simply cut the wire to the indicators on the rear light so now I have seperate mini rear indicators and rear LED light. Don't forget, you still need seperate indicators anyway, as built in ones aren't supposed to pass an MOT.....
