<P>Hi folks, try to explain it in english.</P>
<P>Fact is, for registration in Germany, even as a historic vehicle, I must have hazzard lights.</P>
<P>S1, 1955, 86", regular harness installation like in Workshop Manual page 250. Only thing, I changed from positive to negative earth incl. turning the ignition coil, polarize the dynamo, change the ampsterminals etc. and everything works fine incl. the flashers/heater and every single switch or light.&nbsp;Today the hazzard switch and new relay arrived and I built in the stuff.</P>
<P>So I changed the old mechanical flasher relais into&nbsp;the electronical one and I install&nbsp;the hazzard switch. Hazzard switch has two positions&nbsp;for working. </P>
<P>First with&nbsp;engine running, then he gets the power from the terminal 15(+ 15,15x,H,X,B,15a)&nbsp;supply power12volts from the&nbsp; ignition switch( I connected the wire at the double terminal ING&nbsp;on the backside of the ignition switch.)</P>
<P>Second is with engine/ignition off. Then the hazzard switch gets the power directly from the battery ( I connect the wire at the ampsmeter, where directly the 12V come from the battery via starterbutton entry side)</P>
<P>Hazzard switch works well with running engine and engine off/ignition key turned off. But in the off engine&nbsp;position with hazzard switch on flashers work but also the green(oilpressure) and red (ignition) warning lights burns(constant, not flashing)</P>
<P>This&nbsp;is not&nbsp;okay, because: When ignition is off and hazzardswitch gets the power directly from the battery - how is it possible, that these two warning lights are burning ? (maybe it is theoretical possible to start the engine in this position - no, I didn´t try -&nbsp;when the whole starting power goes through the flasher relay etc, the thing will melt and burn)</P>
<P>I controlled the whole complex (&nbsp;flasherconnections to flasher switch to hazzard switch to flasher relay) three or four times. I made no mistake in connecting the three parts among themselves). The mistake must be somewhere else....</P>
<P>Any ideas?</P>
<P>Cheers</P>
