After removing and reinstalling my gauge pod the 4-way flasher switch turns the flashers on, but won't turn them off.

Please check your 986 for me......When the hazard flasher button is depressed, does it "click"?

Does it stay somewhat depressed or something until you press it again to turn the flasher off?

Mine just pushes in, the lights go on, and it returns to the exact same position. No click. Then the lights will go off while you are depressing/holding the switch, but they won't switch off when the switch is released.
