Hazard light switch

[martinb 0]

Dunno if this is another common Rado fault that mine has now developed (it seems to have gone thru most of the common faults in the past couple of months!! :( ) but i turned my hazard lights on last night and then could not turn them off again!! The button will not stay pushed down. I have temporarily fixed it by jamming a piece of paper in there.

 

Can i fix this or will i need a new part?

 

Cheers

Sounds like a clip/holder inside is broken. Maybe a new part, but wouldnt have thought it'd be expensive, if you can get one.

 

Off topic: Do you work for HIC?

I find that hold in the switch for some time, and then release it....temp fix.

Yeah I tried that, it didnt work :(

 

found a replacement on ebay, are they all the same on early/late corrado's?

 

Cheers

The switches are different on early and late ones

They are a different shape

 

Im pretty sure they should be the same as the golf

 

A late mk2 switch should be the same as an early corrado

 

A mk3 switch should be the same as a later corrado

First time I've heard of that happening. Funny how the dumbest things end up breaking in these cars...
