Urvan turn signal malfunction

I'm getting seriously annoyed. My 2003 Nissan Urvan diesel's turn signal is acting up. The computer's throwing an error, the dash is lighting up, and the blinker's gone haywire! I checked the bulbs, and they seem fine. Any ideas before I lose it?

I had a similar issue with my Urvan, though it was a while back. Have you checked the wiring and connectors to the turn signal assembly itself? Sometimes a loose or corroded connection can cause all sorts of weird electrical problems.

Yeah, I gave the bulb connectors a quick look, but didn't dive too deep into the wiring harness. Where exactly should I be looking for these dodgy connections you mentioned?

Honestly, tracing those wires is a pain. From your description, it sounds like a cable or plug issue is the most likely culprit. My problem was similar, and in the end, I just took it to a workshop. Saved me a lot of headache, even though it cost 95€.

Ugh, that's what I was afraid of. Thanks for the insight; sounds like I'm heading to the shop. The error message disappeared after they replaced the defective connector. Money well spent!
