    have you checked the switchblock? i havent really looked at a vn one vp's are different as they're on opposite sides. but i assume they work in the same way.

    No i hav'nt checked the switchblock, to be honest i dont know where it is or what it looks like, i do have a gregory's manual so i'll try and find it there. I also have another wreck car the same beside my car so i can swap parts to eliminate the problem

    the switchblock is where the hazard button is located take it off and check the wiring at the back of it

    yeah i have tried that, and all appears to be fine, i've noticed that the hazzard fuse line also shares the boot release button fuse, my boot release does not work, i thought it might be the button but even when i bridge the terminals of the boot release still nothing happens could this have something to do with it?

    i just eliminated the wire that goes from the button to the boot release mechenism by running a seperate wire from the button to the boot release, i think i'm going to have to invest in a multimeter

    OK NEW UPDATE!!! I just disconnected the battery for a while, then i was trying all my switches to make sure they worked before putting in a new fuse, and my high beam relay was buzzing and then it came good. so i tried a new fuse in the hazzard lights and now they seem to be working for now, Could the high beam relay be dodgy and causing my hazzard fuse to blow? and also if i leave my boot release button disconnected would this affect my hazzard lights?
