Wanted Hazard Warning Switch
As per the title, the switch on my car's died, in the on position with the lights flashing, so I've temporarily fixed it with a strip of duck tape across the front to keep it switched off for now.
However, I think I'll need to replace it since I don't think the MOT tester will appreciate my 'modification' to Volvo's design, so does anyone have a working switch for sale? A quick look on ebay showed the only ones listed were around £30 - £40 (what!?) and for that price I could buy a dozen rolls of ducktape to use until the MOT falls due at the end of Nov. My car's a 2000 year series 2 but I believe the same part is used on S1 and S2 cars. Thanks

If I'm ever at a breakers yard now with an S/V40 I'm sure to pick them up as they are the sort of item a scrapper doesn't want more than a few quid for but are worth more. Obviously at the minute they are all closed but I'd help out if I could! Hope you find one soon.

Seems like the ducktape'll be on the dashboard for a few weeks, at least.

Hi, thanks, only just replied - delayed due to odd work hours and children on my PC.

Thanks s40t4trowsdale but I'm now sorted.
Best keep hold of your spare one - never know when they're going to go u/s.
