This whole problem started when my turn signals stopped working. I replaced the hazard relay in the dash, however when I replaced this, the turn signals worked but were flashing at a much higher pace, also the hazard lights do not work nor do the corner lights flash when I lock/unlock the car. So I bought a new hazard relay from the dealer thinking that the first one was crap. Turn signals flash at normal rate, however, no hazards and no corner flashes when locking/unlocking. I am at my wits end to what it could be, any help would be greatly appreciated!

Forgot to mention, that it is a 2004 A6, 2.7T.

When I had a turn signal problem, I first swapped in a new hazard switch, with no luck. Ended up replacing the turn signal switch and stalk. There's a diy for it in the diy section of this board.

so what if you put your original back .. everything work excpet the signals ? sounds like you have 3 different set of symptoms with three different hazzard switches . is that correct ?

do the corners flash when you lock or unlock with your original relay ? if not that is the only thing in common with all three..

flashing rate depends on the resistive load provided by the bulbs .. i would be checking the corner lights for shorted wiring maybe or a damaged harness.
