Sometimes I forget to disconnect the blinker and I drive miles and miles with the blinker lighting. I,ve changed the relay and that wasnīt the problem.


Can anybody tell me how to fix this?


Thanks in advance,
best regards.
The easiest solution I know for this is to have a look at your dash more often, you should see a green flashing arrow that corresponds with the direction indicator. There are also more useful gadgets down there too, like speed, rpm, temp and fuel left in tank indicators.

Sounds more like a fault with the self-cancelling mechanism on the stalk, unless you're driving on dead straight roads.....
