well i just got a new one and makes no difference. The problem is..............

I had to changed the dash clocks yesterday so i did. As i was connecting it back up the connector slipped out my hand and sparked in the metal part of dash. Since this when you indicate left everything is fine. When you indicate right is flashes really fast like a blown bulb. The front one works but the back one doesn't. Obviously I changed the rear bulb but it still does not work.

Also since this I havent been able to start the car so obviously something else has blown. I have checked the 7 /8 fuses in engine bay and all are fine.

Are there any other fuses or things i can check. Thanks

Not good I can't offer any advice at the moment but my capri is sat in my garage if you need parts to swap over to test. Mine is a 3.0s so quite a bit will be the same.

The electrics on capris are quite simple compared to most cars. There isn't much that can go wrong. It's a shame that diagram doesn't tell you the location of the relay for the flashers.

I found the relay so that not a problem. It said blinkgleben or something so i assumed it was flasher and was right Im good at german LOL

The lack of wiring is actuall worrying me cos there less that is fused. Hoping i dont have to re-wire loom. I hate that so much!!
