When driving with the headlights on, after making a turn, the indicator cancels as usual, but it switches the headlights off! This problem also happens in reverse sometimes; the headlights won't come on until I use the indicators which will then turn the headlights on, until they cancel, in which case they turn the headlights off with them again!!
