    I have a Vauxhall Vectra 1.6 Envoy and a few months the airbag light
    appeared for no reason. Recently the Indicator light has appeared.
    Sometimes the right indicator does not flash. Both of indicators are
    temperamental. The ticking is also temperamental - sometimes it click
    ok, other times too, slow others times too fast and other times it
    doesn't click at all. Has anyone got any ideas?

    i suspect the two are related.
    the airbag monitoring system are renowed for coming on with an electrical
    'spike'
    id ignore that as such.

    bulbs losing contact will cause the flasher unit to operate faster

    but my thoughts lie with it being the stalk that is playing up as it seems
    power/switching related
    else its the power feed itself fuse maybe loose?

    give the stalk a squirt of switch cleaner on its contax [not wd40 if it can
    be avoided, you need a switch cleaner like servisol or why]

    Thanks for the suggestions, but I'm afraid I had no luck in fixing
    this problem? Do you have any other ideas?

    There fine, both sides flash (front and back) but the daskboard light
    stays on all the time.
