Weird indicator lamp problem 850 1994

Hi all

Wondering if anyone can offer some suggestions as to what might be happening:

Lately, the left front and rear indicators come on permanently on my 1994 850 T5 when I park it. It just stays and glows without blinking, both front and back, obviously then draining the battery!

I had to jump start the car today.

If any has suggestions as to what might be happening here, I'd love to hear them.

Thanks!
Lucast

    Are you talking about the left directional lights?
    If so, I'd look at the directional switch and harness first.

    Does moving the directional lever change anything?

      Hi BB

      Thanks for replying.

      The directional lever and harness is actually fairly new - about 2 years old. It was replaced because the old stalk broke. I'll check it anyway and report back if that was the fault.

      Thanks
