having hazard issues.....

Indicators working fine, but when hazard switch is thrown the relay buzzes a bit then nothing.

I suspect the switch which I believe is a mk2 escort one - where the hell can I get one?

It has 6 pins on the back looks like this

Have you tried cleaning it? A soak in something to get rid of any grease (hot water and soap powder is pretty effective, you may be able to squirt in a solvent?) and then soak in vinegar or switch cleaner?

It is usually just bad contacts where they are used so rarely.

I haven't. Its probably worth a try, it certainly hasnt had much use in the last few years!

Never heard of using vinegar, got to be worth a try....
