Tools needed:
8mm socket
8mm end wrench
Flat head skrewdriver
GM Part Number: 22642606

Removal Procedure
1. Remove the center air louver deflector.
2. Remove the instrument panel cluster.
3. Remove the hazard warning switch bezel from the instrument panel using a small-flat bladed tool to release the retainers. (Optional)
4. Remove the left side bolt from the hazard warning switch through the instrument panel cluster pocket.
5. Remove the right side and center lower bolts from the hazard warning switch through the center air louver deflector pocket.
6. Reposition the hazard warning switch from the instrument panel to access the electrical connector.
7. Disconnect the electrical connectors from the hazard warning switch.
8. Remove the hazard warning switch from instrument panel.

Installation Procedure
1. Connect the electrical connectors to the hazard warning switch.
2. Position the hazard warning switch to the mounting points in the instrument panel. I found that it was easier to bolt the mounting bracket back into the car, once mounted I pushed the switch into the bracket and it clicked into place.
3. Install the left side bolt to the hazard warning switch through the instrument panel cluster pocket. Tighten
Tighten the left side hazard warning switch bolt to 3 N?m(27 lb in).
4. Install the right side and center lower bolts to the hazard warning switch through the center air louver deflector pocket. Tighten
Tighten the left side hazard warning switch bolt to 3 N?m(27 lb in).
5. Install the hazard warning switch bezel to the instrument panel pressing into place until fully seated. Install the instrument panel cluster.
6. Install the center air louver deflector.

:thumbsup: Excellent tip! If your turn signals stop working , try tapping that hazard switch- if they come on, you've got one of the most common alero electrical problems, and you'll save yourself a lot of money and aggravation trying to figure this one out!

Unhappy

ill second the good tip comment....

i KNEW it had to be the hazard button, but couldnt figure out how to replace it without having to remove the dash first... cuz hell i replaced that turn signal flasher thing, like 3 times, and that didnt help... then the hazard button started buzzing and vibrating when the signals didnt work... so i figured it was that....


i just didnt know that anyone else had that problem....



im back btw... hehe got deleted

Oldsmobile is going to do a recall about turn signals not working (sometimes they work sometimes they don't) and it's supposed to be for year model 2001. They have to replace hazard switch. I had then fix mine. Now i have to take it back because the place that did it left alot of dents on my dash around my center vents. I hope that may help you.

hehe sort of... mine's a 2000 :/

but maybe they'll be nice and fix it anyway... since i have the exact same symtoms... also, if mine dont work, 95% of the time it makes a loud buzzing noise, and the hazard button vibrates a lot... its embarassing when you have other people in the car, and they ask 'wtf is that noise???'

If it is not part of the recall you'll have to doit yourself. or complain a lot to the dealer and see if he will cut you a break.

I had this problem intermittantly on my '01. I received the recall letter, and had it done this week. I was out of the dealer in less than 1/2 hour.

While I was at the dealer, I saw the Intimidator and Dale Jr. Supercharged SSs. Who would pay $33.8K for a Chevy car -- other than a Vette of course??!!

Should be able to get it at any GM dealership, they may or may not have to order it though.

Anyone have a link or part number to the GM or aftermarket Black Plastic bracket that the hazard switch snaps into.
I have searched on and off all day.
They must be getting scarce.
Probably scarce at the junk yards too.
Found It here, see below
