Hi Guys,
I remember seeing a post/sticky with a list of wreckers and parts suppliers in Aust on this forum awhile ago. But for some reason I can't seem to find it again (was it all a dream?). Can anyone point me to it if they can?

I'm in need of a new indicator switch (without the rear window wiper switch) for my 95 FTO. Indicating left just doesn't seem to work anymore.

And if you do happen to have the part number handy Rolling Eyes

.. it would be much appreciated. It seems like my version of Acrobat 7 refuses to open up those FTO workshop documents. I'll try reverting back to an older one to see if it works.

Alternatively has anyone had problems with their indicator and managed to fix it? My stalk clicks into place ok, but there is no "tick tick" sound or indicating happening.

Thanks for any help you can give.

regards,
z.

Try www.partslocator.com.au.

Or www.autoparts.com.au.

> Indicating left just doesn't seem to work anymore.

Try to find a wrecker that is accessible by making only right turns! Smile

And the part number seems to be MR252755 or MR252756. Not sure what the difference is!

Thanks Rich. I've sent a request to one of those sites for the part. Hopefully I'll get something soon or else I'll be turning right for ever! Shocked

G'day! Long time no see...

Give a Mitsubishi dealer a ring, and ask about those part numbers (MR252755 or MR252756). They are likely to be in other locally sold cars, so carried as spares. Even if you're not likely to go with their extortionate new-part price tag, you might find which other cars use it. Which would be useful info when ringing wreckers!

Or subscribe to partslocator.com.au and do a search for FTO stuff. Don't expect it to be up-to-date though - just use it as a quick lookup of Oz wreckers that might be FTO-aware.

Good luck...

Ended up buying the whole unit direct from mistu japan.
Pretty expensive but at least its brand new.

heh. These cars... showing their age a bit now.

I opened my fuel filler flap, and the bloody thing fell off. Waiting for a replacement to arrive... which ain't even the right colour!
