    blinkers do not work, and hazard button buzzes only SOMETIMES

    Title explains itself. I've replaced the turn signal relay but that didnt cure anything. It was a used one but i am positive it worked before i put it in. The hazard button only buzzes sometimes, and sometimes the hazards work fine. but my blinkers ALWAYS dont work. any ideas?

      everytime, The contacts burn out. And the hazard HAS to be good for your blinkers to work

        when you say hazard switch, do you mean the actual button? or is there a relay or something.

              just swapped the hazard button and the blinkers still dont work. hazards are working right now as well. could the relay for the blinker stalk be bad even though i replaced it with a working one? or is the blinker stalk done? the solder points looked fine when i took the column apart and looked at it, but could i be wrong? thanks for the input so far guys i appreciate it.

                yea, that would probably be the next logical step, Did you check the ground on the stalk?

                    Im having the same problem, except that my blinkers and hazards work when its real hot outside sometimes. I was going to just replace the turn signal stalk, but I'm not sure why it being bad would effect the Hazard Button?

                      The ground. Follow it from the relay on the stock. You'll find it. And I would say just buy a new relay for the stalk. No need to swap in a used part when the relay is cheap. If none of what people are saying works, replace the stalk.

                      So check the hazard switch terminals, change the relay on the stalk, and last thing would be to change the stalk. If that doesn't work then you have an electrical problem.
