The indicators/hazard lights have stopped working on my GSi.
When I put the indicators on, the light in the dash stays lit, but the indicators don't come on at all.
I think it might have something to do with my hazard light switch because this seems to have started when I tried to put the hazards on.

Anyone got any ideas???

The power for the indicators goes thru the hazard switch, so if thats duff then it'll stop them working. Had this on my saloon... Check the connectionns on the switch, and the internals (one of the tangs intside of mine had bent). Failing that, afaik Vaux still sell the switches...

My hazard light switch seems a bit stiff to turn on and off, so I reckon it would be an idea to try a different switch then!!!

Mate most nova hazard switches are like that(as in stiff) i should do as jack said and if theres still no luck then look into changing it.

(quick tip,rub fine sandpaper across the contact probs,should remove any build up etc,and might solve the prob)

Ive had the same problem, if you remove your hazard switch and put it back in then give it a little bang into the socket you will most probibly see that your indicators will start working again.
