2005 Passat hazard flashers

[nikoid]

I have a problem with the hazard flashers operating randomly. The dashboard switch has been replaced but not cured the problem. They come on when driving as well as when the car is parked (ie ignition off and car locked)

Any ideas?

Thanks

There is a system which triggers the hazard lights automatically if you incur heavy (emergency) braking – I'd suspect that this is glitching... (?)

Any other odd electrical issues? Internal lights?

I'd be worrying about a damp comfort module due to blocked drain/badly fitted pollen filter. Check under the carpets in the front and rear passenger footwells.

No, No other funny electrical problems so far
