99 Hazard Flasher

1999 Mercury Grand Marquis:
Hazard flashers suddenly stopped working.

--> It's NOT the fuse! <--

I THINK the problem lies with the switch-- If I hold it in a certain place between the "on" and "off" positions, they'll flash but I get nothing if the switch is clicked "on"!

All turn signals/bulbs are in proper working order.

Is the switch replaceable... if so, is it a relatively easy fix? (I already know that it's kind of risky working in/on the steering column, because of the airbag);

*PS In case you're wondering: Yes... It IS somewhat more important that I have the flashers working because I use the car in my part-time job, blocking/directing traffic, for various private events. It's not ABSOLUTELY necessary b/c I have other flashing lights (strobes & LED's), but I'd like to have them working, if at all possible.

It sounds like you have a little wear & tear on your switch.

Yeah, I agree that's probably the problem...

Pull lower steering column trim, there are 2 little torx scerws holding it in, there are 2 wiring connnectors on the back. Takes about 15 minutes to swap.
