If there are complaints for these vehicles that the hazard blinking lights activate by themselves, a possible cause could be an internal defect in the hazard light switch.
To remedy this problem, check the hazard light switch and replace it if necessary.
In this case, proceed as follows:
- Remove and dismantle the heating control panel (see Fig. 1). Now replace the hazard light switch (see Fig. 2/ arrow), reassemble the heating control panel and reinstall the unit in the dashboard.
