hazard switch

[hightower]

Does any one know of a mod that can be done to stop the hazrad light putting the ignition on when inverted other than putting the earth on a switch or smoething? cheers

Ye, theres one on the Topbuzz site iirc. Adding a resistor to one of the wires.
Or just block up the spare holes in the switch socket so the switch will only go in one way.

ello hightower :)

you can either take the dash apart and put a diode where theres two black wires going to one connector to stop the circuit from being reversed, or cheat and melt the inside so the hazard light switch cant be put in the wrong way (you'll see when you take the switch out and notice theres one spade connector not on it) ;)

does that work on both mk1 and mk 2 novas? i assumed it was only mk1s

[Jon_nova1]

mark one has a different hazard switch??

[rdanny]

yea i know they look different but does the same fault accure, i mean can they both be started by the hazard switch or is it just the mk1

[Driver]

acording to this it only hapens with mk2 but im not sure

try that anyway thats a guide

[Jon_nova1]

it does, the mark 1 is a turny nob not a pushy switch :lol:

[rybo]

mk1 is a pushy switch too but cnt be pulled out like mk2

[london_chris]

mk1 are fine and dont start up, mk2s do

[rdanny]

mk1 are fine and dont start up, mk2s do

i thought it was the other way around

[hightower]

nope mk 2's do fire up when bumped off trust me, was well gutted when my mate showed me on mine, anyway think im gonna go for the easy option and do some melting with the soldering iron, cheers
