Hazard switch


Recommended Posts

Not sure if I blew a fuse here but since I just replaced the one for my Lighter/power mirrors but the Hazard switch doesn't light up anymore. I have two of them so I decided to test the back up as well and neither of the lights turn on with the interior lights. All the rest of my dash cluster and HVAC work perfectly its only that one switch. When I first installed it it worked perfect I don't know when it stopped working.

I too been trying to figure out the hazards on ours. Turn signals work, but no turn signals with the hazards pushed in. Hazards dont work pushed in or not. Replaced the hazard button with no luck, even tried the turn signal/hazard relay right behind the hood release. Fuses are all good. Had this problem ever since we got the car.

Then outta nowhere...Lord...

 

Maybe it was the Alarm that starts the car. I've been using it intermittently in the night time to keep the defroster on the car on so it doesn't freeze over. Who knows. Still a mystery..

kinda dumb question, did you check the bulb? The bulbs are tiny so even gentle bumps coupled with time kill them all. So feasibly a surge of power could burn them out.

 

I pulled almost 20 hazard switches from the second gens at the yard and found every one to be blown. If that is the case just replace it with the bulb from a fog/defrost switch. But you'll have to transfer the base. but cheaper and faster than any other option.

Makes me wonder what other hidden stuff is in there haha

 

What's up with the dozen or so empty bulb sockets in the gauge cluster anyway

14 light sockets on the bottom row, but how many have bulbs in them? Battery, Brake, AT Temp, ??? Do the extras serve any purpose?

Some of it is probably future proofing so that the addition of new features in later model years did not necessitate a design change. Some of it is also probably for features only available in certain markets. For example, I know at one point "power mode" was only available on JDM vehicles and would have had an associated light on the dash.
