He gives you the signal, but you hesitate (5)
I believe the answer is:
waver
'hesitate' is the definition.
(wavering is a kind of hesitating)
'he gives you the signal but' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'he' could be 'ave' and 'ave' is found within the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
'you' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for waver that I've seen before include "Be uncertain about decision" , "Hesitate" , "One making signal" , "Show hesitation, begin to give way" , "Not be sure of" .)
