Just come back from 3.5k miles trip round europe following a St.Eptoe service on my 1150GSA.

Following the service the bike feels/goes great.. (thanks Neil)

No problems, until coming back up thru France in the rain when the left indicator decided it didn't want to cancel... so I rode holding the cancel button for a couple of miles, and this seemed to cure the problem.

Then, back in good ol Blighty, the left indicator decides it doesnt want to come on (at all). The hazard warning works, as does thew right indicator....

So, took a couple of bolts out of the left switch gear, and a liberal squirting of electrical contact cleaner..... all seemed to work okay for a couple of days.
Now its dead again.... Do I repeat the squirt and hope, or do I need a more long term solution?

(let the piss-taking begin... waits for: "dont turn left ever again")

Same happened to me. First fixed with contact cleaner. Then it broke again. Then actually managed to change the switch bit inside the unit. Until that broke too. Finally change the switch unit itself. Good luck, keep checking eBay for a replacement switch unit.
