It isd possible the tube or capacitor have blown Check out the Sony tech support team. Depending on the age of the camera there may be some support they can give. But it is not a repair option out side of this. .

Where is the indicator fuse on a 2007 Nissan Navara D40

Test the bulbs with a meter. Fast flashing is indicative of load missing from the circuit. When bulbs are in use the filaments become brittle. My guess is that when you took them out and tossed them the filaments broke. If the indicators are flashing then it isn't the fuse.

Wired in new directional on sportster wont flash

From your description, it sounds like the new bulbs (that won't flash) are LED bulbs.
When you replace the stock Harley incandescent bulbs with LEDs, you NEED to add a LOAD EQUALIZER to make the bulbs flash:

The amp draw is different with LEDs, and they won't flash without the equalizer.

Maybe the bulb needs replacing? Try Googling or take it into a camera shop and ask if the bulbs can easily be replaced.

Warning light symbol lighning bolt on dash comes on what is it

Hi!!

That light is called MIL (Malfuction Indicator Light), it comes on when de computer detects a problem.

A loose or missing gas cap can turn that light on. Your best bet would be to go to an AutoZone store and have the computer scanned with an OBDII reader

They offer this service for free and will give you a print out of the trouble codes and therir meaning.

I suggest you do this ASAP to avoid posible damage to engine or components.

My flash bulb doesn't work, picture are dark

Do you have it turned off? Is there a picture of a lightning bolt with a line through it? If so, press the button with the lightning bolt until the screen shows a lightning bolt and an "a". Also, do you have the camera set on a scene mode such as night? The flash won't go off in some scene modes.

Replace flash

Usualy the flash is soldered into the unit. Are you sure its on? some pop up and some have to beflipped up automaticly. Does your display show a lighting bolt? the normal icon for flash being on is a lightning bolt. If it has a line threw it it is disabled in the settings somewhere. Ive never seen one that has failed so it makes me think there is a wrong setting somewhere. Try and hold it up maybe there is dust or dirt o the switch keeping it from detecting it is up and ready for use?
