    Default Hazards come on randomly

    hi guys,
    my hazards just keep coming on randomly at odd times.
    i was wondering if it has something to do with the crash sensor.
    but it doesn't shut the fuel pump off.
    if i cycle the switch press twice they go off but its really annoying.
    (i seached and couldn't find anything on this)

    oh and has any one had a bearing failure in there heater blower.
    mines squeeling like a banshee.

    thanks

    squeeling blower is obviously worn out bearings and it's varly common, id try cleaning the hazard switch if you don't have access to another to try, squirting in some contact cleaner and working the switch several times may be enough
    all america wants is cold beer warm cat and a place to take a poop with a door on it

    You know... I had the same issue all the time with my one GF when she was in the passanger seat leaning over....

    not that it really mattered with everything else going on in the car...

    And I Know Jeff has talked to me about the same issue...
    If it cannot be fixed by the dremel or ducktape.. get out the sledge...

    i kept blaming it on her she said she wasn't doing it.
    oh well it seemed like the crash module but wasn't sure.

    how bad is the blower motor to get to??
    and since i can just start to smell the antifreeze guess i better do that to.
    oh well always something.

    by the way my car can't count.
    the odometer keeps doubling my mileage.lol
    everytime i turn it off and on again my trip meter resets but it works correctly. the kicker is that when it gets 10 mile increments the odometer skips ten in other words it will say 689 miles and the trip meter counts one more tenth then the odometer says 700 lol oh well makes it look like the car has a bunch more miles then it does. when it started i wondered if i was really driving 2500 miles a week.
