Indicators/Hazard lights just stay on

[anonymousmoose]

Hi all,

I got a problem. Today I put on my hazard lights and after blinking normally for a few minutes they just froze. I turned them off but now each time I indicate or put on the hazard lights the light just stays instead of flashing on an off.

Can anyone please shed some light on this? Its a VX commodore executive.

It is probably a faulty flasher unit. You will find it in the fuse panel under the steering column.

Funny thing... I just got back into the car a few hours later and all works fine again. Is it something I should be concerned about or just leave it till the next service?

As accentstencil said, faulty flasher unit. highly doubt it would be anything else

See how it goes, if it happens again buy a new flasher unit for $20-30 and put it in. It's as simple as replacing a relay.

just replace it now before it fails in peak hour traffic, and you feel like a tool indicating with an indicator that doesn't flash

Yeh it happened again. I found out when I press the hazard button it shorts out the indicators for a while. I just wont press the hazard button until i get it sorted. thanks all
