Clicking noise coming from emergency/turn indicator switch

There is a clicking noise coming from the dashboard in the area where the emergency light switch is located. If I gently push the switch down, the noise stops, but I can't drive for hours with my finger on the switch. If I push too hard, the emergency lights go on. Is there a solution?

For DIY, try to replace the switch 2. Locate the flasher unit and see if the noises coming from there.

SOURCE: '00 Grand Am dies when the gas is pushed to hard or when stopping

Either your fuel pump is getting weak or your lock up converter isn't disengaging. Simply unplug the square 4 prong plug on the side of the transmission and this will disable the locking mechanism of the converter. Don't worry the car will not even know it's disconnected. It will NOT drive any different.

SOURCE: When I put my 1995 Pontiac Grand Prix in drive and

dont know if this will help... but my Windstar had the same issue with the lights... it was just the sensor screwing up or no longer attached properly. as far as the grinding goes... it could be the abs kicking in because of a faulty sensor, but poke your head in and take a look at the brake assembly and make sure your pads are ok and that everything is attached properly.

hope it helps:)

SOURCE: I have 2001 grand am se and each time I use the

you will need tho change the signal switch in the steering column.
to replace it you will need a flathead screw driver, and a 7 mm socket and driver.

first you pop off the top cover of the steering column, there are no screws holding this just use screw driver and feed it into where the signal arm goes in and pry up

now use the 7 mm to remove the two bolts holding switch assembly in place.

pull up on switch and unplug the three connector on the back of switch.

plug in the new switch and then line up the switch back into place.
NOTE THE HORN SPRING WILL CAUSE DAMAGE IF YOU DO NOT PUSH IT IN OROUND THE COPPER DISC IN THE STEERING PLATE. just look at the old switch before removing it to see how it goes back in. (this is usually what people forget about)

replace the two bolts and cover.
you will now have no more clicky noises.

My dashboard lights (battery emergency brake light & air bags) are flashing on my dashboard while driving but go out when I come to a stop on my 2001 santa fe

Whenever this warning light or any other stays on in the dash it is indicating that the systems control module (or the system sensor in the case of lights like low oil pressure, door open indicators etc.) has detected a fault, it then disables the system (this applies to ABS,TCS, TCM, SRS and BCM faults and others) as long as the light is on. You must now have the dealer hook up a special electronic diagnostic tool and "scan" the system for the fault code that is stored for the problem(s)

Dashboard "emergency brake engaged" indicator not working nor are electric side-view mirrors

Those lights rarely burn out. More likely the switch on the brake handle came unplugged. Try grounding the wire from the ebarke switch with the key on.

For the mirrors, I would pull up the control panel and probe for power. Trace the power through the mirror sekection switch, etc.

When I start the car brake light on the dashboard is on.my foot is not on the brake pedal.the brake lights on the back of the car are not on.when I drive around the light is still on.

That break light usually means the parking break is on. Check to make sure that is released all the way. Even one click on will turn on the light.

THE HAZARD LIGHTS ARE NOT WORKING AS WELL AS THE EMERGENCY AND TURN SIGNALS, REPLACED THE FLASHER YET SAME PROBLEM, EVEN THE TURNING LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD DO NOT WORK, PLEASE HELP.

Hi, you might have a problem with the indicator switch. You will need to make sure that there is power into the switch and power going out of the switch. If you do not get any power into the switch it might be that the fuse is blown. If there is power into the switch but not out the switch is faulty. If there is power in and out of the switch you will have to see if you get power on the indicator globe connections. If there is no power there a wire might be broken, but I think your problem is with the indicator switch.

Light indicator problems

I would say try and REPLACE the turn signal fuse/relay. It should be a square, black fuse/relay on your fuse panel. They run about $10.00.
