WANTED: indicator stalk that does main beam correctly

Cleaned up the garage and found some parts you want to sell? Or are you looking for that one part? You can advertise or request just about anything that has to do with the Volvo 480 in here: brochures, towing-hooks, antenna's, etc etc...

WANTED: indicator stalk that does main beam correctly

Post by jamescarruthers » Wed Dec 26, 2018 2:44 pm

I'd like an indicator stalk but one that has been verified to work fully, plugged in to a car. Which means, please:

  • indicates left and right
  • Latches on the main beam ‎
  • Flashes the long range lamps with the headlights retracted

Me too!

I've just noticed my main beam isn't staying on, is the stalk itself the most likely fault?

Yes, and it is difficult to get one that is verified working in both actions. I will likely drive to Lake's and try ones from their scrap cars in my car to verify. This will be next year now but if you want I can pick you one up. If so, PM me your phone number and I'll call you when I'm there to see if you are happy with their price
