can any body help me?
i left my omega standing for a few months and now i want to use it again i seam to have a problem with it.
it involes the indicators every time i lock the car one side stay on front and back.
if i un lock it they go out and the other side stay on , now this means that i have to stand infront of the car locking and unlocking it until both sides go out .
now today i was driving my omega and the indicators on the drivers side stuck on and wouldn't go out, i had to stop the car turn it off and lock and unlock it untill the indicators went out.
this is driving me insain please help.

Dodgy relay at first thought. Easy enough to replace and cheap to not have an impact if it's not the problem. Can't remember which relay it is though, but handbook will tell you.

If you have had the car standing for a while then the connections to the bulb connections may have got corroded. Have alook at these first both front and back see what what they are like, clean them up with some emery loth and try again.

Sounds like a relay problem. The parking lights are coming on because the ECU thinks the indicator is on.
It's the big black relay in the middle of the relays under the steering wheel. Should be able to pick up a replacement 3 pin flasher relay most places.
