RDX Flasher Relay Issue

Apologies if this has been mentioned before. I have had RDX LED lights fitted for about 5yrs with the accompanying RDX flasher relay unit. Having had an electrical fault on the defender (Brake/Reversing light fuse blowing when engaging reverse), I put the defender into the garage to be repaired. Having collected the vehicle this afternoon I have since noticed that ALL the indicators flash when I indicate LEFT. When I Indicate RIGHT only the RIGHT indicators flash. I have played around with the relay to see if that resolves the issue but it doesn't.
Do any of you more electrically minded enthusiasts/mechanics know what is causing the issue???

Have you contacted the garage, what have they fixed/changed never had anything to do with led lights.
Have they changed out any light units? or messed up an earth.
Only time i came near led's was looking at a vw pickup that had led rear lights fitted, caused the engine warning light to come on.

What was the repair may we ask? As that can assist in possibly working out what has happened.
Poor ground on transmission is possible, or relay, but, the former I think is more likely.

Was there an MOT?

I think the poor ground on the transmission is the likely culprit. I had this once after an LT230 swap. Charlie
