Thanks Geoff,
Car electrics is not my forte either and as I have posted elsewhere, I have also found the wiring on the Britannia differs to the 603 diagrams (from resources section). Added to the mix is that the wiring has been modified in places........
My problem was the indicators not working and as you know, you can feel those old relays clicking on and off. Confusingly, the hazards worked (of a fashion) but not through any of the relays I had located. I initially suspected relay failure because the car had been roadworthy prior to my purchasing it. I checked out the hazard switch and saw it was wired differently to the 603 diagram (although the colour of the six wires matched the drg). This didn't originally raise any concerns, but after some hours of pondering decided to rewire the hazard switch as per the 603 diagram and Eureka! Flashers work and hazards work much better. It was then easy to follow the clicking noise of the relays to locate them (above right foot next to steering column). Flasher relay inboard, hazard outboard.
