hmm okay... yeah that sounds like the one... we may have different issues with the same symptoms...

maybe try jiggle that plug and see if the blinkers flash or not... or just unplug it and plug it back in and see if the problem goes away...

Just take the plastic off tho... so much easier and no chiropractic bill after...

It sux, auto electricians are a rip cause theyll charge you for them to spend 4 hours trying to locate a problem and then 2 minutes to fix it... fair enough, but sux for the hip pocket...

I'll see how it goes for a while. We're doing a 400km trip this Thurs/Fri. Maybe the pushing and poking has helped.
Thanks for your advice :)

Hi all,

I get a similar problem. but find if i turn on my indicator and turn off my indicator, the hazard lights stop.

I don't think my battery is running low (however it has not been replaced since new).

Generally happens when the car is cold/warming up.

Funny that everyone gets similar problems.

Hmmm okay.

yeah its just annoying really.

Just recently I have this new problem of the interior light coming on when driving (its not on to begin with, but turns itself on after a while).

i just keep it on 'off' now.
