Steve Q Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 When I had this on a ford escort many moons ago it was the stalk unit that had to be replaced. This is also a common issue on french cars. So definitely worth a check. Especially as you've changed everything else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IHK 11 Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 Hi i had the same problem many years ago on a 1993 2 litre audi coupe.the cars hazards would come on when i indicate either left or right and this would sometimes last for about 2 days then it might not do it again for a month or 2 but would always eventually do it again. The problem turned out to be that there was an old alarm on the car that was intermittent. The garage removed the old alarm and any connections from it to the battery and the car was fine afterwards. This might not be relevant but i had the same problem many years ago on a 1991 mitsubishi colt and the problem with that was a faulty flasher unit. Sometimes tapping the flasher unit would stop the hazards coming on when indicating but eventually i had to replace the flasher unit. I hope this is of any help to you.

Magnet Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 Many thanks indeed Gregg. It’s a shame the original poster never returned to the forum, but hopefully the advice given may help someone else at some time. Kind regards, Gareth.
