Turn Signals
 

I have an 2001 A6 2.7T and recently ran into a problem with my turn
signals. All of a sudden, they don't workanymore. When I engage the
signal,the lights d not blink <signal> but when I check outside the car,
the lamp on the side that I switched to is on, ut notblinking.

First thought was to change the fuse, but when I putin a new one,it
still would not work.

Questions, what, other than the fuse could be causing this ?

Any help appreciated.

It's your emergency flasher button. Same thing happened with me

The emergency flasher is working, that was the first thing I checked.
How did you fix the problem ?

I took it to a dealership, and they replaced the flasher button.
It's a well known problem. Dude had it diagnosed from the same
description you are posting here.

Steve,

Thanks. I took it to my mechanic and he said exactly the same thing and
even knew the cost of the part. Will be taking it in tomorrow to have it
fixed. Thanks again.
