garyk New Member 2 Member For: 10y 9m 23d Gender: Male Posted 24/06/13 05:54 AM Share Posted 24/06/13 05:54 AM Hi All,I have an issue with my 2009 FG G6E Turbo that started this weekend, was wondering if anyone else has come accross it.The left turn signal is constantly on when the car is running (or off but ignition in accessory positon).You can still indicate right however when the selector returns to the middle/neutral the left signal starts again.Another indicator stalk was tested on my car and the same issue was occuring.Other things that have been tried:- remove the turn signal fuse, the left turn signal is still on.- remove the turn and hazard fuse, the left turn signal is still on.- unplug the whole steering cluster under the steering colum, the left signal is still on.- unplug some more looms on the passenger side, rear turn signal turns off but mirror and headlight turn signal are still on.My mechanic has called a few Ford services centres and none of them know of this issue.Suggestions welcome.Gary.

If so is it possibly short wiring from there back through the system? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No plans for tuning yet but I wont rule it out.Overall very happy with the car.Thanks for your replies.Gary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did it require a whole new cluster? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
