I wonder why they would save a few bucks and leave out the hazard lights? :-).

Kristian,

I think that you answered your own question. Wink

The hazard warning system may have been a US DOT (Department of Transportation) requirement.

I see that there is a short piece of yellow wire connected to the green wire. Mine has that too. If you were to jumper the green and yellow wires (sans the hazard switch), then the turn signals would work even with the key turned off. The factory may have originally connected it that way (for cars without the hazard switch), and later found their "mistake". Then the yellow wire was simply cut and a new pin was crimped onto it, along with the blue jumper wire.?? Just a guess.

Perhaps someone on this board has the other half of the connector (with the wires attached) that they no longer need???

John
