My hazard lights wont switch off,switch is obviously faulty. Can anyone talk me through how to fix this please ?

What make of vehicle have you got

Volvo s40. It's an S reg.

first step i would take would be to get a spare from a breakers yard and see if that fixes it. Or if you have access to a multi meter try seeing if you can make and break a circuit with that

if the switch is working, have a look at your relays


Did they start flashing when you pressed the switch or just randomly

is it related to the hazard button (stuck) or the alarm system?

Thanks guys..am tempted by the big hammer...lol I pushed the button tp put them on and although the button itself is not stuck they wont go off. Istuck a piece of paper under the button and that stopped them flashing but can hear the "thingy" clicking quietly. And just to round things off..the battery is now flat....grrrrrrrrrrr

try a new button or just pay someone to look at it

Not saving much money though

As I'm unemployed at the minute , paying someone is not an option.
