Hi everyone.
Megane hazards are playing up. Started about a month ago coming on randomly when you'd start the car first thing in the morning. The thing was that they would start flashing when the ignition was turned on and then would go off themselves when the engine fired up or a few seconds afterwards. When not in the car or when it was locked they'd be fine - random, but I could live with it.
Today, however, when sat in the car for a while they came on and nothing would make them go off other than starting the engine. It got to the point when I left and locked the car they were jammed on. Tried the hazard switch, removed the switch. Only random thing that can turn them off is turning the end of the stalk to turn headlights on and off - rare. I know the cars are horrendous for electrics, I well know it and maybe the whole electrical system has just kicked it big style!? Any direction?
