Posted February 8, 201114 yr Hi all, my son has a DT 50 MX and the indicators just stopped working. I thought it might be the switch, however, when you turn them on the neutral switch dims as though the indicators are getting power. Could it be the flasher unit or does anyone have any other ideas. All the other lights work fine. Thanks for reading. Hope you can help. Dave.

I would imagine it is the flasher unit, i went through 4 on my derby send 50, not sure why it happened but i changed the flasher unit and they worked each time. Im not saying it's that for definite but it's a good place to start.

February 11, 201114 yr Author Thanks for the help, tried the arms, he's to lazy, kids these days. Got a new flasher relay, never worked, I will try charging the battery and checking the cells tomorrow. I think that will be ok as all the other lights work, will let you know how i get on. Cheers Dave.

Cheers Dave. I dont think the headlight is from the battery but direct from the magneto and the tail light is not much load from the battery so its not surprising they work ok

February 12, 201114 yr Author Thanks for all tour help. I changed the flasher unit and charged the battery all works fine now. Got a new battery on order as this one is not holding a charge for long. Thanks again. Dave.
