850 Electrical Problem (HELP!!!)

Have a problem with v 850 (92), every now and then (more often in the summer), the hazard lights start flashing - only resolved by taking the fuse out. After standing for a few hours the problem goes away.

Any idea of what is causing the problem and how much it will cost to get fixed would be greatly appreciated.


Cheers,

yes, the problem, i believe is the 'crash control unit' sounds like a big deal, but it's basically just a relay that's suppose to be triggered by the SRS in an accident to turn the flashers on. they fail a cause the hazards to come on all by 'themselves' . should be under the drivers dash [cover panels & knee-bolster removed] if they've been on about 15 minutes with the key off, it''ll be the warm one. just replace it.

Many thanks for the reply and advice - the problem hasn't occured for a few months so hopefully it has sorted itself but I will keep your advice at hand just incase it starts again.

Cheers and many thanks once again,


Rob.
