Car Forum / Peugeot Cars / January 2007306 xsi N-reg o/s indicators stick on when unlocking car
When unlocking the car with the key fob, the indicators flash rapidly a few times. Recently, the off side indicators (all of them) stay on (permanently, even without the keys in the ignition) and it's a major hassle to get them to turn off (ie. opening and closing the car with the fob until they eventually "unstick"). The problem has become so bad, I now do not use the fob. Does anyone know what's going on & how to resolve it?

The unit is contained within the drivers side rear wing panel. Try taking it out and giving the relays a light rap with the handle of a screwdriver. I eventually had to carefully drill a small hole on the top of the offending relay and have had no problems since. A new unit is VERY expensive. Jim Jim, Many thanks for this info. I thought it may be a relay, but couldn't find the alarm box. In fact, I still can't! Could you describe exactly where it is, and how I access it? I had a look in the boot, but can't see an obvious way to access the rear panel (all the fabric is stuck to the metal work with adhesive). My Haynes manual's about as useful as a chocolate teapot, telling me nothing other than take it to a dealer! Mine's a N-reg 306xsi, I don't know if they put these things in different places? Again, many thanks for any help you can offer.

If it is 5 door then I have misinformed you - it is under the drivers seat in that case. I have emailed you pics re where to look.

I think my mallet would like a chat with it. Driving round at the mo with left indicators permanently lit, trying not to attract attention from the fuzz! Thanks in advance Steve > Could I also have the pics re: where to find the alarm control unit on > a 3 door ?95 N Plate 306.
