first day back at uni, car is finally running great. bout fukin' time i reckon.....
anyways, i got a small hitch in me elec system.
every time my hazard lights go on, so does me horn!!!
to make it worse, i was in a shopping center, and be lights went nuts......picture a gem with its horn and hazard lights flashing/beeping in time.....would have been funny if it wasnt me......
does anyone know why this has happened....or how it fix it? i just sorted the mech side, and now the elec side fucks up. could be worse but,it couldve blown another motor...lol....
anyway,thanx guys/girls,
appreciate it

that sounds like some funny shit....,
anyway do you have an alarm fitted.. if so check it's wiring and back up battery, may be a problem there.

i'm thinking roughly here some other suggestions:

1. steering column electric module may have something broken in it and shorting the horn pickup to the harard switch,

good luck,

Cheers Eggy
