S70 Turn Signal / Hazard Mystery
Hi,
I am the proud owner of a 1999 S70 and we recently experienced a problem with our turn signals/hazards. The turn signals stay "solid" and do not blink when the direction signal is indicated to either side. We also noticed that when the hazard indicator is pressed, nothing happens. No blinking, no lights of any kind on the outside.
I've replaced what bulbs I can think of...and I have replaced all fuses associated with these functions -- nothing seems to be working.
Anyone have a solution? I would like to avoid a hefty mechnic bill if it is something simple.
Thanks, Dennis

RE: S70 Turn Signal / Hazard Mystery
That happened to my wife's 98 s70 as well. I spent forever checking relays, looking for a short etc, because I didn't notice anything except the dead battery the stuck turn signal caused. When I recharged the battery and connected it, the signal was on as you describe. Ended up pulling out the hazard relay which is the hazard switch, nothing looked weird inside.. Put it all back together and it's been fine since..

RE: S70 Turn Signal / Hazard Mystery
hey im the guy who had this exact problem
i have fixed the problem since and it has not occured in several months
however i am not completely sure which repair actually fixed the problem
these are the repairs i made i replaced:
the front signal bulbs
the rear signal bulbs
and finally i replaced the front sockets for the front turn signals
these repairs only cost around 40 total
they did not take affect immediately which is why i inquired here but for some reason one day they started working again and havent reverted since
