Hi James<BR>
<BR>
Your indicator problems are almost certainly caused by
the tail light <BR>
boards, however you don't state whether it's only one
side that's <BR>
affected. If it's both, does it also occur with the
hazard lights?<BR>
<BR>
You may have cleaned the internals of the switch, and
maybe the spade <BR>
terminals underneath, but the smell is most likely
coming from the plug <BR>
that goes onto the switch. Use a small needle file and
roughen up the <BR>
terminals in the plug as best you can. The motor is in
the door - if the <BR>
smell comes from the centre console, the motor ain't
the problem.<BR>
<BR>
If you get the chance to see Ian Titley's car, that's
a good example of <BR>
the original grain. Mine too still exhibits some of
the &quot;stripeyness&quot; <BR>
many cars left the factory with. NB they shouldn't
have! according to <BR>
Mike Loasby, they should have had a crisp sheen to
them, which is <BR>
achieved by sandpaper of anything over 80 grit. Coarse
scotch-brite will <BR>
do the same job (never use steel wool). If you balls
it up, just go over <BR>
it again - there's not a lot of mistakes you can
actually make which <BR>
will cause no more problems that wasting time! Just
remember not to push <BR>
hard on the bonnet when you're brushing it.<BR>
<BR>
My favourite product, which made a real difference to
my car, was a can <BR>
of stainless steel cleaner/polisher that Paul Salsbury
discovered. Paul, <BR>
weren't you going to get a few cans?<BR>

&gt;Wondering if anyone has come across any of these
problems...<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt;If I switch on an indicator and press the
footbrake the indicator <BR>
&gt;stops flashing (indicator bulb goes out) release
the footbrake and <BR>
&gt;flashing returns, I can put all the lights on and
even select reverse <BR>
&gt;with no flashing problems, only happens with the
footbrake.<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt;Also I freed off my drivers window motor a while
back, I also <BR>
&gt;disassembled my window switches to clean them up
like new as they <BR>
&gt;were corroded, the windows work fine, but I get a
strange smoky smell <BR>
&gt;from the drivers switch when I operate it, I've
tried swapping<BR>
&gt;the <BR>
&gt;switches over and it still does it (only the
drivers side) also I <BR>
&gt;felt the wiring below the switch to see if it gets
warm, but it <BR>
&gt;doesn't, it all works fine, it's just the smoky
smell that<BR>
&gt;worries <BR>
&gt;me, the only thing I can think of is it's the
motor.<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt;Finally I went over to see my friend who's just
purchased the <BR>
&gt;expensive Scottish Delorean that was for sale, it
drives like a new <BR>
&gt;car, beautiful, I noticed the bodywork is finished
with a very matt <BR>
&gt;look, I've polished mine up, but was wondering
what the correct<BR>
&gt;look <BR>
&gt;should be, I saw an article on the web on how to
clean the Stainless <BR>
&gt;and suggests a rough scotch-brite pad, my local
B&amp;Q stock Scotch-<BR>
&gt;brite pads and the roughest is for metal
finishing, I bought all the <BR>
&gt;grades they stock!), is this the best pad I can
use or does anyone <BR>
&gt;know of anything better, it also suggests that I
use 3M Stainless <BR>
&gt;cleaner to work in with the pad and a procedure to
get the best <BR>
&gt;results, has anyone tried this and did they have
pleasing results?<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt;I've seen the Deloreans on the NEC stands before
and wondered<BR>
&gt;what <BR>
&gt;they do to polish theirs apart from using original
Mr Sheen!<BR>
