Post by samples08 »

Update for #3. Hazard lights started working but they are blinking like crazy if I switch to the old switch they manage to blink even faster it's almost like a bulb is out on both sides but all bulbs function

Weird suggestion, but are all grounds and battery leads tight? I've still have yet to experience the persistent security light issues some have on these cars, but the few times I had a sporadic light it was due to the battery being loose.

I will definitely double check that, it only seems to blink if I have the door open before I start the car not before or after.
