The flasher relay is in the fuseblock under the dash. But the hazards use the same flasher unit as the turn signals, so it may be a ground issue, not a flasher unit issue.

Also check the bulbs

The signal flasher is under the dash to the right of the glove box.

The emergency flasher is under the dash to the right of the fuse module.

The turn signals and flasher also use different fuses. Check the fuse for high resistance, and also the connections. High resistance connections and fuses can reduce the voltage enough that the turn signals will not function.

Thanks for all the advice! Will look into it and let y'all know what I find.

Ok, learn something everyday. I sure that there was only one...
