<p>The present invention relates to an illuminated indicator shaft(203) for a rotatable and illuminable pointer to be used for instance in stepper motors (103).The indicator shaft(203)is arranged to:allow light to propagate longitudinally through the shaft(203);to be rotated about the shaft axis(209); and to receive, on one end, a pointer(105). The indicator shaft(203) comprises a casing(201, 501)arranged to prevent light from propagating through the shaft walls parallel to the shaft axis(209).</p>
