Default Flasher warning light

Hi everyone
Been having a few issues with my flasher warning light
I bought a 3 terminal flasher relay and wired 1 terminal to ign live 1 terminal to the indicator switch and 1 terminal to a warning light the warning light then goes to earth
The indicators work fine my issue is the warning light which comes on as soon as I turn the ignition on then flashes when I turn the indicators on
So how can I make the warning light only light up and flash when I use the indicators
Many thanks

You need the output from the unit to the indicators to take the feed to warning lamp.

When I say warning light I mean a small pilot light to indicate the indicators are on on the dash

What Paul means is to take or find the wire that is spliced into the feeding +ve to your indicators, if you have lft and rgt idiot lights (dash) then you need 2 feeds from each indicator to your dash lights and the easiest place to take a new set from would be the repeater indicators that are usually fitted to wings.
Hope this helps
