Has anyone hacked into the wiring? That would be the first thing to look at. Also, my hazards switch is very picky. If it's not in the right spot, my blinkers don't work.

First question I always ask when diagnosing electrical problems: "Do you have an aftermarket stereo system?"

I had a similar issue.

Ended up removing the switch, sanding the corrosion off, and TA-DAH!!!

I would pop it off and check the switch too. Or just skin your knuckles and give the Z gods a blood offering. Usally works for me
