just had some work done on my 2005 audi allroad 2.7. had intake, piggies, dv's, air spring bag, compressor. A couple days ago i get the <= 1 => icon my dash when i use the right blinker. From what i could find that is a trailer blinker indicator which is interesting since i dont have a trailer. A day after that comes on i notice that i have a rear right tail light out. Replaced the bulb, still out. Now today i have no blinkers, i hit the turn signal and nothing comes on, not even on the cluster. Hazards still work fine though.

its the relay that activates the signals. its actually inside the button you press that turns on the hazards. that or its the stalk that you push up or down to turn on the signals themselves. I had the same issue. replaced the hazard relay or button whatever you wanna call it and problem fixed. I suggest you buy it brand new, found them on ebay myself so I bought 2 of them. they are OEM and I paid something stupid like 32.99 each. from stealership was close to $80 for one.

yea i replaced the hazard relay less then a year ago, stealership charged 120 for it. This morning i was playing with it and found the blinker fuse was blown. Replaced it and everything seems fine now except im still getting that tow symbol light and rear tail still out. ive replaced the bulb and fuse for the rear tail, next im going to replace the bulb socket

problem found and fixed. the carbon fiber intake shroud cut into some wires on the passenger side headlight which caused havic to electrical system. Taped them up and all fixed
