    I have a problem with my VS V6 (BT1), before motor and auto have properly warmed up, while sitting at Traffic Lights and accelerating after stopping, the hazard lights can at times flicker a couple of times, as well as the Park Brake Light will at times flicker as well. Relays or Contacts can be heard trying to opetate.
    Been a number of times to trusted Mechanic and Auto Electrician to no success. Only been charged for Computer replacement.
    Body Computer has been replaced,as was deemed faulty. Reprogramming done by Holden. Central Locking and Wipers played games until new computer installed.
    No error codes come up.
    Car runs well, just flickering hazards.
    Only happens when in Drive, have put it in Neutral at lights, and all seems to be fine. All settles down after a run down the Motorway.
    Only known problem is a solenoid in the Auto, this problem to fixed after Hazard Light problem fixed.

    Hoping someone can help,
    Cheers

    Check that the park brake is fully off and not 'almost' off (may cause intermittent park brake light) and maybe replace or at least inspect closely the hazard switch as they can fail.

    Thanks hako, tried the Park Brake before, always off. The Hazard Switch will the first job tomorrow.
    Thanks again.
