    Having real problems in sorting out my flashers, everything else on my setup works except this circuit. Can anyone see where I've gone wrong?

    Basically the indicator switch seems to activate both LHS/RHS at the same time, hazards don't seem to work at all?

    This is what way I have it wired

    Spartan turn signal? Have you opened it up to see if the moving parts are in working order?

    I would put diodes inline to isolate the flasher circuit from the turn signals. (links from hazzard switch to the turn signal switch) As it is right now your hazzard light dash indicator will come on everytime you use the left hand turn signal. This lamp is redundant as the turn signal indicator on the dash for both sides will flash when you have the hazzards on.

    Also on the DPST hazard switch, on the side that connects to the turn signal switch, is there anything that connects the two poles together?

    Yes on review I can see your point on the dash warning light, as for the diodes, yes I thought they maybe required, as for the DPST switch I'm not sure about the internals but no nothing on the external side connects both together, should there be?

    If it was me..... I would disco the Haz switch and see if problem remains..... if not......suspect switch...... if so.....suspect wiring.....

    Ah, it was more simple than that, I had forgotten to earth the indicator warn lights so it was bridging between them effectively making both left and right positive the entire time. Took disconnecting everything on the indicators to find it though.
