so i recently bought a 1995 chevy s10 and when i step on the brakes the 4 ways come on until i let off the brakes. does this have anything to do with the fact that the 4 ways button is broken inside of the top and mabye its jammed? if anyone has a fix for this please let me know.

thanks

do your turn signals work when the hazards are not on? if not it could be a jammed button

yeah they work normally. i figured it was a jammed button. is there a way to un-jam it? and how come it only happens when the brake is applied?

thank you for the help

It sounds to me like a bad bulb. Have you tried changing it?

I doubt the brake light switch is causing that problem.  
Try replacing the bulbs. THey usually get corroded and fuck up.

The reason why i say, is because the same shit happened to my wifes honda civic a couple months ago.  
Its only like 3 bux for the 2 pack. Give it a shot to see if that helps.

Good Luck!
