Well, let's troubleshoot for a bit.

*  Do the Turn Signals work (of course w/Ignition ON)?  If so, the
Flasher, which operates either one.  If not, Flasher or the Fuse is
suspect.  Can't remember which fuse position it is, but if it looks
ok, check to make sure the fuse ends and the tabs it contacts aren't
corroded/oxidized.  If ok and the Flasher still doesn't work, it may
need replacing.

*  If the Turn Signals/Flasher is working, check to make sure the
plastic connector is securely fastened to the back of the Hazard
Switch and the connector terminals are clean. If this checks out OK,
then the switch may have to be replaced.
