After hitting a deer at night and really needing my hazards, I've decided to fix them. When I push the button, nothing happens. However, I have noticed that sometimes the switch blinks when the turn signal is on.

Where is the relay that runs the hazards?

There is only two options for the relay location. The first place to check (easiest) is the fuse/relay panel thats under the hood/bonnet. This is where the headlight relays are. I don't recall if it's there or not. The other possible location is in the passenger footwell behind the fuse panel. The turn signal relay IS in this panel. I would think it would be in the same area as the turn signal relay being that they must use the same circuit.

I wondered if they did share the same relay. Since the turn signals work, it can't be the relay, can it? I find it hard to accept that the switch could go bad, unless it's full of troll lint. I think I'll start with the switch.

The flashers do have a separate relay.

;oops: Thanks for the correction. With all the car work I've done lately, I can use all the savings I can get.

The Hazards DO HAVE THE SAME RELAY as the indicators (at least in my 1994 Aero they do). Had the same problem only yesterday - indicators worked but hazards didn't. switch ok. Changed indicator relay as I couldn't locate a seperate hazard relay and BINGO the hazards now work!

Relay is behind fuse box in glove box - you have to remove glove box and unscrew fusebox to get to the relays. Indicator/hazard relay is in back row, 2nd from right if I recall correctly.
