2000 OLDSMOBILE ALERO CONSTANT CLICKING NOISE FROM THE HAZARD SWITCH Sign In

I AM HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THIS CAR. i REPLACED THE HAZARD SWITCH AND IT IS STILL MAKING A CLICKING NOISE. IT HAS TO BE SOMETHING ELECTRICAL. DOES ANY ONE KNOW WHAT ELSE IT COULD BE. I INSTALLED A HEAD UNIT AND AN AFTERMARKET AMP AND SUBS. EVER SINCE THEN IT HAS BEEN MAKING THIS CLICKING NOISE. I DONT HAVE ANY OTHER ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS ONLY THE HAZARD SWITCH. THE CLICKING DOESNT SEEM TO BE AS PROMINENT WHEN THE FACE PLACE IS OFF OF THE CD PLAYER.

Just how did you decide which wires to tap into to power this stuff? Instructions with the stuff or just tap into what had power and ground?

The interior fuse box should have a spot for items to be on all the time like for memory and one that only works with ignition. Those should be used IF AND ONLY IF THE POWER OF THE AMP AND STUFF is less than what those are rated for and you would use an in line fuse such that it doesn't involve anything else.

There are "interfaces" that will plug into the vehicle's harness for routine audio stuff and you have the specs to power stuff it never would have had originally even if you had to go direct to the battery for power. Seems like you've hacked into the hazard's wiring and who knows what else?
