Stupid Indicator problem sorted

DiscoII Warm weather, indicators work fine. Gets a bit colder and a five second delay. Gets really cold and a twenty second delay - great when you want to change lanes in a hurry. Took the steering wheel off and dissasembled the indicator switch and the grease had gone as hard as a rock between the contacts, forming an insulative layer. On a hot day the grease was not as hard allowing them to work and a cold day, too hard to form a contact. Cleaned, new hi-temp grease and they're as good as new. Weird, but true.

Steve,

That may be timely for me!!!! This morning about -1 degree C and my indicators didn't want to work when turning right. Coming home from work they were working correctly i both directions.
