Subject:I'm buzzing - Sequel to Wires and otherwise
From:Derek Krueger

Another issue I thought I would mention.  When activated, whether the car
is running or not, the Hazard/Emergency flasher switch buzzes loudly, glows
red, activates the turn signal indicator LED and does NOT flash the
lights.  If you activate the turn signals, either right or left, while it
is freaking out like this the buzzing subsides and that particular sides
lights will flash.  Additionally, the switch, if not perfectly turned off,
will do the same buzzing and glowing red thing. Slap it, massage it, etc.
and it will stop.  Wires are all intact and there does not seem to be any
short external to the switch.  My guess would be bad switch?  Any thoughts?

I am currently pouring over the Bentley wireing diagrams for some answers
to both of these recent posts.

Thanks as always,
