I have a 1973 vw beetle. My indicators don't work, as well as my fuel gauge and alt and oil lights. The alt or the oil lights don't come even when you turn the ignition. The headlights work so it's not a fuse. Hazard lights still work and show up on the dash. Can you please tell me what it is
Don't discount the fuse idea until you have checked them all, the headlights work off a different circuit. Since you have lost so many functions, check the earth wire between each of the components/lamps. The Beetle uses a brown wire as earth and it is connected to several components before terminating on the bodywork. Is the flasher relay working correctly? they are cheap to replace but new ones look completly different to the original so take a note of which wire goes to each (numbered) connector. This unit too is earthed by means of the clip which fixes it to the body. Please don't attempt to run the car without knowing that the oil pressure light is working The engine will destroy itself in seconds without oil pressure.
