• Q: How to replace the hazard warning switch on 2001 Chevrolet Malibu?

  A: Disabling the sir system should be the first step before attempting to replace the Hazard Warning Switch of the vehicle. Start by pulling out the instrument panel cluster trim plate from its position on the ip carrier then break the electrical connection of the dimmer switch if needed. The first step disconnects the Hazard Warning Switch electrical connector. A small flat-bladed tool should be used to depress the tabs so the Hazard Warning Switch can be released from the instrument panel cluster trim plate followed by removing the switch by pulling it outward while keeping the plate in place. The new Hazard Warning Switch should be pushed inward through the trim plate while maintaining pressure on this plate until full seat is achieved. Install the instrument panel cluster trim plate back to the ip carrier after connecting the Hazard Warning Switch electrical connector with the dimmer switch electrical connector if required. Finally, enable the sir system.
