Dealership are saying my hazards aren't working because I have fitted LED sidelights ... Can someone else with the bulbs we all ordered check that their hazards are working for me please? Many thanks Baz

Not getting it back today as they have to order parts for the hazards.... but its my fault coz the LEDs apparently. They will fix it this time but not next is their attitude.

Oh and their paint mix machine is broken so the wheels aint been refurbed either!

Baz I can't see why changing your sidelights would effect your hazards, seems a bit strange to me

Technician is saying that they muck-up the voltage levels of the car... but surely with the lights switched off the hazards would then work!?

Im brewing lol if they muck up tomorrow I will be raging lol. Least now I have some backup that other peoples cars are fine.

Get them to prove it in front of you Baz. Take a set of normal bumbs, swap them over and see if the fault is still there... Call their bluff I say :thumbs up:

checked my hazards on the road home tonight and they worked fine. Are the hazards on the same wiring thingy as the side lights.??

My hazard lights are working fine with the LED side lights. Sounds like a load of BS.

Got car back tonight, not a thing was said about the LEDs lol

Wheel refurb looks great and highly recommend it at £40+ VAT a wheel!

Also taken by surprise that they are sorting out the badge on my steering wheel - it has warped and cracked but I thought they would give it the old 'wear and tear' but no they have ordered a full airbag unit to replace it.

Happy Days!

Well have to say, sounds like you've had a good result Baz. Least you've got your motor back, as I know when I don't have mine, although your maybe not using it, still feels weird its not sitting outside!
