Hi guys, whilst driving home last night all of my indicators on the left hand side of my car decided to stop working all together, cue lots of flashing from other drivers!

So what causes this, anything i can do to fix it or is it a garage job.

Car is a 98 plate fiesta si mk4.

Thanks.

Do they work when you put the hazards on? This will narrow it down to a wiring fault, a switch fault or maybe even a flasher unit fault, as the hazards typically use their own feed circuit, bypassing the standard flasher unit and switch on the column.

doesn't appear to have done, plus the fact that the fuse controls both indicators and the right ones are still working

There should be separate fuses for left and right sides not the same one for both sides(well they are on my 2000 Festa).

I would check the bulb holders for corrosion/shorts or bad earth then check the fuse again and replace if necessary.
