Hi all.Update on main beam indicators not working.poppoed into halfords to see if the guy could change or check the F35fuse as I just couldn't get to it.He checked the fuse and said all fuses both in the car and in engine compartment where ok.He tested the wing mirror which was damaged and no current was going into it.Also hazards arnt working.He said it maybe something to do with the GEM.Have booked into a garage tomorrow. I assume a vehicle diagnostic should pick up the problem.All this cause someone hit my wing mirror.Hope it's not going to be an expensive fix.Take care out there.

Hi Jim,

There is no fuses for the indicators, the switch stalk sends the input signal to the General Electric Module, the output of which goes directly to the indicators.

For main beam check fuses F1 10A and F4 10A both in the front distribution fuse box. These fuses are supplied by relay R1, in the same box.

It is possible, damage may have occurred to the GEM.

Cheers jimbov8.Just seems all about excessive, considering it a wing mirror that was damaged.Causing no main beam and no indicators.Ok driving during the day as am using the good old fashion hand signals.Thanks again.
