Hi i have a 2002 focus, none of my indicators are working.
i have checked fuse 32 for indicators, this had blown. I changed it and it blew again straight away,when i turned the indicators on.
I have looked at the relays and i cant see what one i should change, they are listed as being.

relays in the passenger compartment
17 starter
18 rear wiper
19 front wiper
20
21
22
23 horn
24 battery saver
25 rear defrost

relays in the power distribution box

5 high beams
6 low beams
7 fuel pump
8 engine management

10
11 air con
12 daytime running lights
13 fog lamps
14 stop lamp inhibit relay
15 engine cooling fan lvl 2
16 engine cooling fan lvl 1

Ive read other posts but the info im getting is conflicting, some is saying its built into the speedos others say there is a relay.
Could someone point me in the right direction ?
Ive read a few more pieces that say the flasher unit is in the hazard switch is this correct? and is this what i should try changing?
Thank you

 

There is no relay for the indicators. On pre-facelift cars the flashed unit is built into the back of the hazard light switch. On post facelifts the flasher circuitry is built into the GEM module (ECU).

If the fuse is blowing when you use the indicators then you have a wiring fault, you could try swapping the indicator stalk for another one otherwise you are going to have to try and trace the wiring around the car to find where it's sorting out!

 

It sounds like a definitive short, when the fuse blew upon replacement what side did you indicate to? You can then isolate the problem further, most likely some condensation/water inside the light clusters on that side, probably the side repeater.
