Title: indicator noise
Post by: apsmale on 28 May 2010, 19:09

would there be any reason for the noise your indicator makes while indicating to randomly come on every ten or so seconds?

If you have blank switch socket covers (black plastic covers) Pop off with a small screwdriver the cover nearest to hazard switch, then you can get your fingers in behind hazard switch body and easily pop it out (no damage or force necessary).

 Once the hazard switch is proud of the dashboard the hazard switch is removed by simply uncliping it from connector block.
