Direction indicators work fine. Hazard lights work on right hand side only.

Any one can help with wiring diagram. Fuses seem OK.

Thanks for immediate response - So you are saying its not the hazard switch but what we call the indicator switch (down-left up-right) even though they functions as indicators ok

Much appreciated will fill in the report bit when I have worked it out

yes the turn signal switch in the steering column. when you turn left and right there are little fingers that slide across a circuit board inside the switch. there are 2 sets of fingers, one for the turn and one for the hazards. thats why your turn signals still work. those fingers are ok.
