240 indicator fault

Did you check the bulbs? Does the hazard flasher work? Fuses good and not corroded?

Hi Bob,

These 240 fuses have always been a problem. I solved it by throwing out all the usual "grey/silver" ended fuses which seem to set up a galvanic reaction with the copper/brass spring contacts. I cleaned up the contacts by scraping and wire-brushing them then coating them with dialectric grease. I found fuses similar to the originals but with copper ends to match the copper contacts (at a VW supplier, sad to say......).

Result, no more corrosion.

Good Luck. Andy I.

Know it or not but the 240 and a VW golf (rabbit) use alot of the same electrical parts. Others as well.

Mario Well over a year into the wifes 240 and still under $150 total cost. :o)

They both have Bosch electrical and fuel systems so that isn't surprising.
