<p>Before you tear into the relay box, check that the proper
terminal on the box is getting voltage when the RH turn indicator
is selected. On my BN2, this is terminal #4, and I wouldn't be
surprised if it's not the same as your BJ8 (but can't verify).
The relay is sealed with spot welds, which will have to be drilled
out if you need to do brain surgery.<br>
</p>
<p>The trafficators have a sliding 'switch'--really, just a piece of
brass that gets moved over a brass terminal when an indicator side
is selected--and if this gets out of whack you will get the same
result. I got into mine to, ahem, 'improve' it, messed up this
'switch' and got one side to work and not the other.<br>

we are talking about a flasher unit... your little round can
with 3 terminals...... and the relay... with 8 terminals. <br>
So, in your case the flasher unit is working fine however, there
seems to be a problem with the relay because when LHS is called
for the contacts for both the front and rear bulbs close but,
for the other side probably only one pair of contacts are
closing. <br>
This can be determined by observing which, i.e. front or rear,
bulb is lighting.<br>
The "relay" probably needs adjustment.<br>
This is a littie like brain surgery... takes a little practice.<br>
Best of luck. <br>
