Hi I've just put a p200e engine into a lml star deluxe frame and getting it ready for a m.o.t. It's all ready apart from the right indicator. It stays on at the front but it doesn't flash and doesn't work at the back.

That sounds like a bad bulb in the back. I'd check that first.

The back right indicator works. I had the right side panel off and tested it with a battery and the indicator light comes on. The left front indicator flash when the left side panel is off. The front right indicator don't flash it just stays on. I change the bulbs for new ones i got spare.

That's usually all it takes. The lights and indicators on my old VW always play up when I take it out of winter storage. Cleaning up the contacts and the grounds usually puts it right. Also happens when I take it for inspection…even if everything has been working fine for months.
