Hazard light button fallen thru!

[jeza91]

Hey all,

I was having some car issues while driving yesterday, so i went to press the hazard light button, and when i did, the entire button fell thru the dash!

It was impossible to try get out, and so the lights stayed on. I took the fuse out, but that just made the lights stay on, but not flashing.

Is there a way to open up the dash to push the button back through?

I know theres 2 screws just behind the steering wheel part, but is there anything else i need to open it up?

Thanks

This should help ya mate. Sounds like the clips on the button have broken from age and heat, not to hard, just a few screws and clips ti remove the dash plate. pick up a switch from the wreckers for a few bucks

Sounds like the mount on the back side of your dash fascia has broken. It clips the hazzard light switch in on the top and bottom of it. If only 1 is broken like on mine, you can use a cable tie to hold it on, it works really well.
All you need to do to investigate this (and retrieve your switch) is remove the dash fascia, search the forum for a how - to on it.
Yes, those 2 screws facing up behing your steering wheel, as well as three when you open your fuse panel and 2 under the mat, either side of the cigarette lighter.
Remove centre console fascia first, then 2 more screws for upper part of dash fascia.
Do a search for more detail on this
