Hazard lights on
I just replaced my electronic panel behind the dash because the temp gauge wasnt working. Now everything works. But when I flip on my headlights I see the hazard light indicators light up on the panel. However the hazard lights are not on. When i pull the hazard lights out they flash accordingly. So what could cause the arrows show up when I pull the headlights?
I'm lost on this one. |

Re: Hazard lights on
It could be a ground issue with the circuit or it is possible that the cardboard tubes surrounding the indicators are not sealed and there is light from the dash lights coming into the tubes.

Re: Hazard lights on

Re: Hazard lights on
My left indicator stayed on when I put my head lights on because my front left signal was burned out. How are your signals in your front bumper. I assume you have a 72.
