Those hazard light switches on corsa b,s are crap mine was well dodgey, had it wedged in wiv a bit of card cos u couldnt turn the bugger off! worked 4 the mot though funnily enough! My Gsi was the first car i have had that sailed straight through the mot, my mate works at the garage too and i no all of the mechanics, so would have passed wotever if u no wot i mean
