just an update on this issue... its now resolved with a new indicator stalk.
Though I still dont know what relay 36 does as everything works in the car without it...
Have looked on the internet for info and can find limited stuff about the function of this relay.
I believe it is a buzzer warning relay, but would this effect the indicators and stop them from working?
As background information, for months I had an issue with the buzzer sounding (or what sounded similar to a relay chattering) when i would indicate. The indicators would not come on.... initially thought it was the stalk... but it would happen intermittently... I re-seated relay 36 and the issue went away for months. Then recently when my wife was driving it she said that the indicators stopped working and a trail of smoke rose up from the steering column... she pulled over, vacated the car and called me to come to the rescue. When I got there I figured the relay had finally given up and burnt out... I remember one of the relays being "red hot" to touch but now can't remember if it was 36 or the one above it (maybe 72??).
Anyways... I haven't driven the car since and now want to fix the issue but from the information I have found none of the relays have anything to do with the indicators.
Any help???
