Just over 12 months ago I had a PCT towbar and electrics including a bulb relay failure relay fitted to a Citreon Picasso by a local towbar fitter.
The system has recently developed an electrical fault where the audible
indication 'sticks' on intermittently. This results in the indicator on the
caravan staying on although the car indicator does work correctly. Can anyone
suggest a simple diagnosis and remedy?
The relay box has, manufactured by PCT Automotive has the following details on it:

Volton Combi
ZR 1220
16011-PCT-40
e11   00-0828

Thanks for any help you can give.

Frist check all your bulbs are working , then check that you are getting 12 volts to the indicator bulbs when they're ment to be flashing , you'll need a multi-meter that has a needle to show this because it's easier to see the indicator pulse up to 12 volts and then down to zero .  If your not getting near to 12 volts there's probably one of two faults , either the wiring is faulty between the connections in the boot and the caravan indicators ( most likely cause is the 12n plug / socket connections ) or if you have a seperate relay that flashes the caravan indicators it may be faulty .

That's all i can think off ,hope it helps

If you log onto pctautomotive.co.uk they have an excellant website with wiring and fitting instructions for all of their products, and i`m sure they have a contact address in which to send any questions you may have. I found it by doing a GOOGLE.co.uk search and it was the first heading that came up
