I have a 1994 Vauxhall Frontera. The towbar light on the dashboard is permanently lit and last night the indicator lights stayed permanently on when used -they didn't flash. Today, the indicators have now stopped working and the towbar light is still permanently on.

Hello Jean,

Your warning indicator will be telling you that a fault has been detected in one of the vehicles monitored systems.

Follow the link below for a trick to access these fault codes with a description of the reference codes.



Vauxhall fault codes Pedal trick test

Flasher relay probably bad

run the fault codes to find the problem with the abs system
because it brakes there may be a connection to the ECM that switches the power off

check the brake fluid level first, you might have a slow leak

that warning light is the message given to you by the vehicle ECU,and by using a scanner surely you will get the fault code given.

got me thinking here .,,,,in all honesty havent come across this on this model before but i have had it on a renault i think it was and it was caused by a chaffed wire under the bonnet near the power distribution box cant see it being the computer as this would run a feed to the relay not direct to the lights as the ECU is only chips and not many power passing transistors in a car ECU ,no check the wiring loom ,also dodnt these vehicles have a parking light that comes on either side of the car when indicator is put to that side ,could something be wrong with that maybe ,Must say though never heard of a vauxhall passat though ,Were you on night shift when you wrote this

That sounds like an injector fault, try having diagnostic tool pluged in while driving, or get garage to do it.

thats a relay thats is not working propperly, must be replaced to fix the problem, just go to your dealiship and ask for a turn indicator relay for your model and ask your part sales man to show you where is located, if not...just follow that click...
have fun

Probably the brake light switch located near the brake petal.

The selector switch is bad.On the transmission.
