Interior Hazzard light not turning on

Has anyone had this problem? My button for my hazzard light is not turning on when I turn on my head lights. My guess is the blub blew out. Has anyone ever replaced or fixed this problem? If anyone has a fix for me I would galdly appreciate your help. I can live without it but if its a quick fix then why not try to fix it. I dont want to take it to the stealership to have them fix so they can charge me 100.00 just for a diagnosis. Thanks in advance to all for reading.

I got a similar problem, except my "passenger airbag" light turns on only when I engage the hazard switch. Hmmm ....

I was able to figure it out. I popped open the vent console and replaced my bulbs. At first I thought I had to remove my navigation system which would have been a pain but I found a thread online which showed me how to pop off my middle vent console where the harzard/passenger airbag sign is located. I purchased 2 bulbs and now all good. The stealership wanted $100plus parts (bulbs) I was able to fix for less then $9.00. Don't listen to Valley Stream Acura, they are clueless. They told me the light bulb for the hazard and Passenger Airbag was different and the Passenger airbag blub was more. Rallye Acura said, it was the same bulb and it cost $3.95 each plus tax. Cali Joker your problem could be your switch connection might be loose from behind. If you want to replace the whole switch Delray Acura is charging $29.00 for the switch. Good luck.

Yay! I'm gonna look into this, I was driving last night n the light was out so I gave it a lil love tap right on the "passenger air bag " text n it turned on... I guess it must be a loose connection. By the way, is the passenger air bag "OFF" light should be off when I don't have a passenger or should it be on when there is??? Lol cuz mine lights up when vehicle is started n then turns off

It only lights "off" when someone sitting there is less then 40ibs. Other wise it only turns on when you start the engine and it should go away.
