Right,
So i've no indicators or hazard lights.
If i remove and bypass the hazard switch i can do the following:
Light up the indicators - so wiring is okay.
Hear a relay tick once - flasher is okay?
I can't get light flash though...

I am certain it isn't the stalk as i've put a new one in. If it was a problem with the hazard switch i would be able to get the lights to flash by bypassing it so don't think it's that.
The only thing i can think of is the relay not working properly however i've replaced it with a relay i know to work and it doesn't change anything. So my thoughts are a problem with the earth from the relay.
If i am thinking along the right lines, please could someone enlighten me as to where this earth runs to?
Or if i am completely wrong, please may someone suggest where the fault lies??

Thanks,
Jasper

Oh and also, I've swapped the loom so my 1987 90 has a 1995 200tdi loom in it.

I had same fault which was an earth fault in the end.
Mine was the rear lights, I just run a length of wire from a good earth to each lamp holder until I found the culprit.

I think you have an issue with you hazard switch, pretty common fault. Overtime the switch builds up loads of crap inside and prevents a clean contact between the copper stripping. Rather that buying a new switch which is £15, you can carefully take yours apart and clean it. It's really simple. Do a search on here, I'm sure done a how to a couple of year ago with pics. Also check the bulb in the switch is working, this can also cause the fault.

Good luck

But all of the lights work if directly connect them up bypassing both the hazard switch and the stalk so i don't think its an earth on any of the lights?

I thought it was the hazard switch too however if I connect the points (in the plug for the hazard switch) directly then it still doesn't work so i cant see how it would be the switch....

Ahhh i hate electrics!
