How to Turn Off the Continuously Flashing Hazard Lights of a Car?
1 Answers
There are two main reasons why a car's hazard lights keep flashing and cannot be turned off: the central computer control board may have malfunctioned, or the relay controlling the doors may be broken. Hazard lights are used by drivers to alert other motorists or pedestrians in emergency situations. Normally, there is a hazard light switch inside the car. If the switch fails to turn off the lights, you can remove the hazard light fuse. Removing the hazard light fuse will stop the hazard lights from flashing and will not affect the normal operation of the turn signals or the car's locking system. However, once the fuse is removed, the hazard lights will no longer function. Therefore, after removing the fuse, it is advisable to visit a nearby repair shop to have the hazard lights inspected and repaired. If the hazard lights still cannot be turned off, the control box might be faulty. You can use a multimeter to test the output line of the hazard light relay. If there is an intermittent 12V voltage output, it indicates normal operation. However, if there is a constant 12V output or no output at all, it means the hazard light relay is faulty. In such cases, it is best to visit a 4S dealership to have the relay replaced or repaired by professionals.
