    The indicator has stopped working on my Holden Captiva 2014 turbo-diesel

    ...

    I have a Holden Captiva 2014 turbo-diesel. I changed the driver’s side headlight globe, but when I checked it, I found the indicator had stopped working. All indicators are working except the front driver’s side. Any suggestions?

    There’s a very real chance that in getting the headlight globe out and a new one in, you’ve somehow managed to bump the indicator light fitting and, perhaps, dislodged a wire or displaced an earthing point. The lights on the Captiva are housed in a cluster, so it can be a bit tight for space in there.

    So give the indicator globe a wiggle and see if that restores things. If not, you need to look a bit deeper and start checking fuses. But if the rest of the indicators are working properly, it’s most likely that you’ve knocked a wire off or something similar. Either that or the indicator globe has chosen that exact moment to blow. It sounds unlikely, but it’s definitely possible.
