Hazard Warning Lamps: Description and Operation

A "hazard warning" flasher is standard on all vehicles. Pushing the switch control bull on to the right (on top of steering column) will disconnect the regular directional signal flasher and energize the hazard warning flasher. The hazard warning flasher will work with the ignition switch in any position. The turn signals will not work with the hazard flasher on. Pushing the switch to the left will cancel the Hazard Warning flasher.

When the hazard warning flasher is operating, the directional signal indicator lights and all front and rear turn signal lamps will flash. The front side marker lamps will also flash. If the brake pedal is depressed while the hazard warning flasher is operating, the center high mounted stop lamp will illuminate while the other lamps continue to flash.
