Hazard Warning Switch: Service and Repair

REMOVAL
WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury on vehicles equipped with airbags, disable the supplemental restraint system before attempting
any steering wheel, steering column, airbag, seat belt tensioner, impact sensor, or instrument panel component diagnosis or service. Disconnect
and isolate the battery negative (ground) cable, then wait two minutes for the system capacitor to discharge before performing further
diagnosis or service. This is the only sure way to disable the supplemental restraint system. Failure to take the proper precautions could result
in accidental airbag deployment.
1. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable.
2. Remove both the upper and lower shrouds from the steering column.
3. While spreading the plastic latch features (2) integral to the back of the Steering Control Module (SCM) (3) outward from the back of the hazard
switch (1), pull the switch straight away from the back of the SCM far enough to disconnect it from the SCM.
4. Remove the switch from the SCM.
