Problem with my 1998 Buick park avenue
Mileage 103,111
Engine size 3.8l
dash lights = service engine soon
tech = electrical
question = my hazard lights will not stop flashing when i press the
button on or off.I cannot use my turn signals because of this.I changed my
turn signal and hazzard switch but it still just flashes they wont tern
off with the button. Can you help me troubleshoot this problem???
JK:
Has any work been done to the car just prior to this condition?
If you tilt the steering wheel while it is happening, does it change anything?

Todays GM vehicles use many sensor, switches, solenoids, and other electrical components to
control or monitor every aspect of the engine.
From controlling the fuel and ignition systems, to monitoring the emissions.
A problem in any of these systems, or subsystems, can cause the check engine light to come
on.
The first step in any diagnosis of the check engine light is to get the computer (PCM or ECM)
scanned for codes. Any time this warning comes on, a code is stored in the computer memory
along with many data parameters that were present at the time of the fault.
