Hazard Flasher Switch





Hazard Flasher Switching

The hazard flasher system operates independently from the key lock cylinder. All turn signal lamps can be made to flash in unison by depressing and releasing the hazard actuator located on the top part of the steering column. The switch is identified by a "double triangle" symbol.

The actuator will move out or away from the steering column to the ON position. The hazard flasher system is turned off by first pushing in the actuator and then releasing the actuator. The actuator should remain in or toward the steering column in the OFF position.

NOTE: The turn signal system is deactivated when the hazard flasher system is on and turn signal lever motion does not affect the hazard flasher system.

One flasher unit is used for both the turn signal and the hazard flasher system.
