VW T5 hazards randomly flashing
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
🚐 Welcome back to Footsteps and Tyretracks! In this video, we dive into the unexpected issue we faced with our recently acquired VW T5 Sandhurst camper - random hazard warning lights! 😱 After ruling out the possibility of an old alarm causing the trouble, we take you step by step through the process of fixing this problem.
But that's not all! 🛠️ While tackling the hazard light issue, we seize the opportunity to upgrade our beloved VW T5. Join us as we install auto lights for added convenience, incorporate in-dash USB sockets for modern functionality, and enhance the audio experience with tweeters and new door speakers from the fantastic folks at Vibe.
That's not the end of it - witness the transformation as we swap out the steering wheel with one from a VW Passat B8, and elevate our safety game by upgrading to a Wolfbox rear-view mirror dash cam.
🕒 Timestamps are available for your convenience, allowing you to jump to specific sections of this comprehensive video. Whether you're dealing with a hazard light issue, planning an upgrade, or simply curious about VW mods, this video has you covered!

Thanks this might help me , I have the hazards that randomly come on and stay on sometimes I can switch off sometimes I can’t, hoping it’s the bcm, can you still use the van once bcm is removed ? Cheers

I’m not sure you can as it controls your horn, indicators, wipers that I know of .
I am having this issue, for solely the BCM is it easy to get to and pull out to send for repair, and do they re code it ? Thanks for your time. Rik

Hi Sorry for the late reply for some reason I missed you comment. The BCM came back exactly the same ie Cruise activated so I don't thing they actually reprogram it as far as I am aware.
So whqt was the fix for flashing lights As no time stamp for it?

@@povliamrides this is the company bcmrepair.co.uk/ I paid £250 plus postage but apparently they are now charging £270, a few people have told me they have had a few issues contacting them however I didn't. I think it took about 8 days from sending it to them. I Hope your friend gets it sorted I ended up disconnecting the battery.

@@FootstepsTyretracksI used the link that you left but the website says 'unavailable'. Not sure what to do now as I'm having the same issues as you (except in my case, as well as the hazards/horn/indicator issues my windscreen wipers and central locking are playing up too 🥴😢)
