Pulsar Turn Signal Fault

My 2014 Nissan Pulsar diesel has a recurring turn signal issue on the driver's side. There's an error stored, a message on the speedometer, and a general lighting fault. The bulb looks fine. At 70552 km, I suspect a cable or plug issue. Anyone else seen this?

I had a similar problem on my Pulsar. Drove me nuts for a week! Was it just the one side giving you grief? Error codes can be misleading; did you check the connector for corrosion or damage? What about the ground connection for that lighting cluster?

Thanks. Yes, it's only the driver's side turn signal. I visually inspected the connector, and it seemed okay, but I didn't specifically check for corrosion beneath the surface. Where's the ground connection located for that lighting cluster? I'll inspect that.

The ground is usually tucked away behind the headlight assembly, kinda awkward to get to. My issue ended up being a faulty connection within the connector itself – looked fine, but wasn't making proper contact. I caved and took it to a workshop. They confirmed it was the connector and charged me 95€ to replace it. Saved me headaches!

Much appreciated. Based on your experience, I'll take a closer look at the connector and ground, but I'm leaning towards a visit to the workshop to avoid further frustration. Thanks!
