Hazard switch


chiefmd

Recommended Posts

Just picked up a 1973 240z, great shape but I need to fix a few minor issues. The hazard switch shaft and knob have come out of the flasher assembly. Is there anyway to

reinstall the shaft or does the complete assembly need to be replaced? I did remove the switch from the dash but no matter how hard I try the shaft will not stay in. There are

two flat spots on the shaft which I assume should lock into something. Does anyone have any experience with this. Thanks

The shaft does not normally come out of the switch body. Since you have it out, pry open the case tabs and have a look see inside. Chances are you will need a new switch but you never know. I'm not close, but I can send you a switch if you get to that point.

Do you have a spare 73 hazard switch? That was a one-year only switch.

Fantastic! Way happier to hear it's fixed then you have to spend thousands to buy mine! (that's a joke son, relax....)

I'd pull that shaft real carefull from now on.. Wait, maybe I should rephase that....

Thanks for the offer. Fortunately, I bought a spare 10 or 11 years ago when a Z dismantler in Albuquerque was closing up shop. I was just making sure you were offering a 73 hazard switch since it is unique to that year. I'd hate for you to send a switch to him only to find out that it won't work.

Save it for the next person who needs one.
