Hey guys,

Just wondering if anyone else has been having electrical issues with their 380.
I've got it booked in to be looked at tomorrow but the issue has started with the indicator stalk. Now basically the indicators need to be forcefully held on in the direction I intend to go, the parker's and headlights flicker and sometimes wont come on at all unless pressure is allied to the steering wheel module, and the whole dash/stereo/gear knob lights now dim in and out too.

The guy I spoke to is telling me its just an issue with the indicator stalk... sounds a little to simple to me...

Yeah I had that problem with the indicator and apparently it's somewhat common.

It is just the indicator stalk, the dash lights etc only flicker because they are tied in with the headlights, which are also flickering.

I had exactly the same issue about 6 months ago. They replaced the entire stalk under warranty. Took them about 15 mins while I waited. The new one has a nice 'soft feel' about it.

Awesome!!! Thanks guys. Mine should be under warranty too then. I was kind of hoping to avoid the need for an auto elec.
