Indicated right and steered right and indicators double fast clicking.

Indicating right and put foot on brake and all rear indicators double flashing really quick.

Any ideas?

Its a renault master 3 litre 2006 model

Check the front indicator bulb.

If it is kaput it will make the rear one flash double quick.

That's the first quick check.

Id say there was more to it than just a bulb gone, if they are all flashing once the brake is applied. Im guessing theres some terminals touching in the light unit - possibly initially blowing said bulb.

I expect you are right Mick. Very Happy

That's why I said it was a first quick check. Wink

Maybe EBA (Emergency Brake Assist) is activating as that forces harzard on rapid flash?

No idea if your van has them mind, nor no idea if its related. But maybe!

I go with Clive in saying it is an earthing fault, so once bulbs and their connections in the holder have been checked- sometimes the bulbs get a build up of muck between them and the holder which breaks the contact. If that dosn't cure the problem start looking at the connections between the lamp and the chassis.

Definitely an earthing fault, get someone to check and you will probably find your brake lights are also flashing dim/bright with the indicators.
