What, no indicators?

I have mini (non LED) indicators.

Bike decided to roll on side stand. Just snapped off clutch lever end and caught left front indicator. No dramas.

The bulb did not work so I managed to get a 12v 4watt till today when I could get the correct wattage i.e. 12v 21watt. All okay but when I checked again last night nothing except for right rear indicator which flashed quickly. Nothing on left, even on dash.

Maybe wrong bulb screwed things up? Fuse okay?

Any ideas before I go to bike shop?

Just jiggle the bulb holder in the affected indicator. If they are oxford mini indicators the bulb holder can sometimes have dubious contact. You should be able to pull the bulb holder out of it's rubber socket to check wires and make bulb replacement easier. If they are not oxford then I don't know what I'm talking about
