Vespa PX 125 Rear Indicator Problem.

[webby]

Hi. New on here and looking for advice. The rear indicators on my Vespa Px 125 model 2001 electric start work sometime then done, I have clean the contactor up but this still doesnt solve the problem. I can remove and replace the side panel and again sometimes the indicator come or don't or they just will stop working. its not always both its sometimes just one or the other.
Any advise???

I found jamming some tinfoil into the hole on the body helped, but I was running a spare wheel with a scorpion exhaust, needed to lengthen the contact point. You could try this, but I don't think it's the answer to be honest.

Take the indicator switch off , and have a look
These have came loose on me a couple of times
(all that gear change twisting)
Easier than stripping everything apart.
Ps this was after I tried for hours! Then remembered

Just so you know problem solved.
The rear indicator housing at the back of the panel where the rubber protector covers the indicator just needed a spot of solder to firm the connection. I found this out by just pressing it firm under the panel while the indicator was on and engine running.
