    Angry Vs Indicators/Hazard Lights not working :(

    Hey guys

    I took the dash out recently and put it all back together and now the hazards/indicators dont work, I have checked the fuses and the blinker and even borrowed a blinker to test and still no change =/
    I did a bit of searching and found that the hazard switch might be broken? I took the dash out again to recheck everything was connected etc and all seems fine

    Any ideas?

    Yeah just make sure you plugged the hazard switch back in. This happened to my mates car the other day after he had the fascia off and had to disconnect the hazard button.

    Just make sure that's plugged in first, then get back to us...

    The fact that they stopped working only after you had the dash facia out indicates it is more than likely a connection problem. Pull the plug out and make sure it is clean and well seated.

    yeah bottom line is, if that switch shit the tin then your blinkers wont work at all.. Got any mates with the same car? Borrow their switch to test it.

    Did you plug the right switches back in? Like you didnt connect the hazard switch plug to your a/c or heated rear window button?

    Easy to tell the two apart , one has different pins to the other

    I had the same problem. Could be a screwy hazard switch. Try this... keep pushing the hazard switch in and out for about 10-15 secs, then test your indicators.

    I was watching the auto-elec do it and i was like wtf? but it worked, so try it
