You don't say what age your Defender is, but I have a 1985 110 with glass fuses, and I have no end of problems with the fuses. They don't blow, they just have poor contacts and sulk every so often. On mine the brake lights are on the same fuse as the indicators, do your brake lights still work?
If yours has glass fuses I would suggest cleaning up the contacts on the fuse holder.

Mine have done exactly the same before. It's usually the hazard switch at fault. Either taking switch apart and giving the contacts a bend or change switch. I have several switches lying about and one gives you indicators but no hazards and one gives you hazards but no indicators. I currently have indicators but no hazards but the mot is coming up so I will have to do something about it.

Lost both direction on my trafficators but still have the hazard lights. Checked all the fuses, all OK. All light bulbs are working.
The steering stalk switch is only about two years old, I reconnected the old one which other than the horn was in working order. Still no trafficators.
My electrician guy is away till the end of the month, anyone have any other ideas as to what I should check?

If the Hazards work then the relay is fine, it has to be Hazard switch, stalk or wiring before the hazard switch on the indicator circuits.
The harzard switch basically takes a permanent live supply combines the circuits and fires the supply via the relay for the flashing, on normal mode it takes the directional switching, and runs the split circuits.

Hi Thanks everyone. Managed to sort out my trafficator problem. It was the hazard switch. A wire had become disconnected.
