Hi turn indicators and hazards not working. Is it

Check the fuse first. Maybe one of the bulbs get in a shortcircuit and the fuse blow up. It's very less probable to be the flash unit wrong.

Bmw powersteering fault still no powersteering

Who fitted the pump?

If the pump was fitted wrong it may have air in the pipes, it might need bleeding through, alternatively the fault could be the power steering rack and not the pump.

Hope this helps,

Lights keep going dim on mini cooper s 2007 dashboard

You don't say if it's "just" the dash lights, or if other lights do it as well. Try turning on a dome light and see if the dome light does it along with the dash lights. Do you notice your headlights doing this as well? These are just troubleshooting steps. If multiple light sources (dome, headlight, etc.) do it, then it's most likely a voltage regulator issue.

After changing the front seats in a bmw mini

Hi, BMWs have a history of showing unnecessary light alerts on the dashboard ...especially if they have outlived their roadlife. You need to check is there is any opening in your airbag windows...if none, simply ignore it....it will turn off itself with time.
