The hazard lights on our Sightseer stops flashing when I step on the brakes. I asked the Service Advisor at the Dealership during 30day service, they said it is normal for safety reasons, specially with single unit brake/signal lights. Solid red lights to warn drivers at the back of coach that I am stoping or slowing down. As soon as I release the brake pedal, hazard lights flash again. I normally use the hazard lights when backing into our driveway after a trip.

I just wanted to know if others have similar experience.

mis3s welcome to irv2.

I have the same operation of lights when mine are on as long as your foot is off brake pedal you should be ok while backing.

Enjoy the forums and post often.

Slightly different variation on the same question -- my '07 Journey has amber turn signals along with the red brake lights.

I have noticed that the 4-way flashers stop flashing when I press the brake (no toad attached). I would expect with separate turn signals from the brake lights, that the 4-ways would continue to flash when the brake lights are on via pressing the brake.

Is this how it should operate?

On my '00 Journey the 4-ways would continue to flash when the brake pedal was pressed.

I assume this may be because of the toad wiring on the new units, which most likely converts the amber/red lights into a single red light for the toad. I am still surprised that with no toad connected that the motorhome amber lights stop flashing with the brake lights on.

Can anyone confirm this?

Thanx.

My 04 Adventurer does exactly the same thing.
