Q: Hazards not working rogue electrical issue!
Alright so i know the drill with these silly things... replace the switch which has the relay and it should solve the issue.. NOPE i have replaced this switch 3 times now.. twice with Aftermarket parts from Autozone and once now with a VW product with no result. I have checked the wiring all of which are pushing some sort of voltage except the brown wire which im assuming is the ground. The only time these flashers will work at all is if i mash down as hard as i can on the button and hold it as soon as i release it they turn right back off. Any help would be absolutely amazing, these rogue issues always get me
