    Had a go at fixing my hazard switch today but Unfortunatly my clip was broken inside due to some wolly doing my last mot.

    Ive taken a picture of the clip that gets damaged by pulling the switch outwards. This can be fixed by either super glue or by dismantling a calibra hazard swich & using the internal parts as they are the same.

    Even with the clip broken for now as most know you can remove the 2x springs & the switch will still work fine.

    thanks, Good guide

    when I stripped my switch, it turned out that the white track for the pin on the front half had some out of its mountings. The pin itself was fine.

    all working now though

    not long had my mk2 nova and asked what the folded paper was for the guy hadn't had it long and just said it had come like it so thought nothing of it. as i drove down the road a few days later i got fed up with the tatty bit of paper hanging out the dash so gave it a yank and wished i didn't when my hazards wouldn't stay off so the paper got rammed back in place now i've found this guide i will be attacking the paper again tomorrow to get rid of it cheers
