Probably the fuse, or the relay, although i think on some cars if the relay fails it tends to leave the light on.

What about the hazards, do they flash?
You could try a reset - disconnect the battery and re-connect. Make sure you have the radio security code first ...

yes the hazards work fine

aren't hazards actually the indicators flashing together?

I would try what Risla has said Joko.regards your battery, if you only do very short journeys, you are not giving the battery the charge it needs, give it a good run once a week.
