Hi guys,
My Hazard switch has given up so I need a replacement. My indicators eventually began working after pressing the switch around a 1000 times but the hazards just wouldn’t work. Seen all the posts on here regarding bringing a switch back to life but none seemed to work so decided I didn’t have many other options but to try to refurbish the switch myself, this was not successful!
Any help would be greatly appreciated as I’m trying to get the car back on the road and I need this to pass the MOT.
I have the feelers out these around various UK breakers yards but zero coming back as yet (both for Carlton or M100 switch types) so hoping someone on here can assist??
Thanks in advance.
Robbie.

did you talk to robert hagen on facebook ?
as far as the switch rebuilding. I would give it a go but have no idea how. its more of a situation that if i had a broken one at hand i would try to repair its internals.
if the switches are now completely impossible to source. i may end up looking into making something out of 3d print and new electronics from scratch. the circuitry isnt particularly complicated. the pacakging really is the harder part of the job for an amateour like myself to achieve/
